Bulk storage of vehicle batteries
« on: October 15, 2008, 05:13:06 PM »
Part of a large warehouse is about to be used for the bulk storage of charged and filled vehicle batteries.

Please can anyone point me towards a guidance document to assist me in reviewing the fire risk assessment? I have googled and HSEd without finding anything relevant to bulk storage. I am aware of the sprinkler system implications but struggling to find anything else.

Have you tried battery manufacturer/supplier?

Is this any good?
