Class description
This webinar will offer training on lithium battery technologies, their widespread and growing use in many manufacturing and commercial applications, and incidences of explosions, fires and injuries are on the rise. OSHA issued a safety and health bulletin in 2019 to raise awareness about the hazards and controls of lithium battery. In addition, fire, electrical, and building codes as well as other standards e.g. Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) continue to evolve to reduce the risks around the battery design, use and transportation of these batteries.
