High Voltage Signs
Showing the single result
Electricity presents a clear and present danger in the workplace, so it is necessary to label any hazards to avoid injuries and fines. Use a High Voltage Sign from American Sign Letters to clearly mark any machinery, wires, breaker boxes, or transformers that produce tremendous amounts of electricity. Failure to do so could result in penalties from OSHA and other relevant regulatory authorities, to say nothing of the injury and potential death visited upon employees and visitors. When you purchase a sign from us, you’ll know you’re getting a high-quality, effective sign that clearly communicates the dangers of meddling with the hazard in question.
Make the Threat Clear
Electricity is invisible and sources of its conduction and transmission aren’t always obvious to the untrained eye. It may seem redundant to post a “Hot Surfaces” warning on a stovetop, but it is vital that you post a High Voltage Sign on any transmission source that may look completely benign to a bystander. Don’t count on people – even your employees – to know the difference between a safe machine and an unsafe one. Electricity can be tricky and deadly; don’t take chances when it comes to electrocution. Use all of the warnings you can find, and you’ll know that you’ve done your part for workplace safety.
Mark Electric Fences
Do you have an electric fence surrounding your property? It is your responsibility to post a High Voltage Sign (or a reasonable equivalent) to alert people to the dangers of coming into contact with the fence. In most cases, an electric fence looks no different than an ordinary chain-link fence. Passersby will have no particular reason to believe that they could be subjecting themselves to electricity by simply touching the links. We all understand the importance of keeping private property secure against trespassers, but security should not extend to “surprises” that could cause injury or death to a mischievous kid or someone idly walking by the property.
Your Property, Your Liability
A High Voltage Sign isn’t just about saving lives and protecting workers; it’s also about living up to your responsibilities as a property owner. If you have an electric hazard in your building or on your land, you are legally required to label it in accordance with OSHA and other regulatory standards. Thankfully, when you buy from American Sign Letters, you can easily and affordably comply with the law.
