Alert 05 – 05 Battery Charging, Ventilation, and Storage
WHAT HAPPENED:
Recently we had an explosion of a battery deck box that contained the batteries for the Baylor brake emergency backup system. Significant damage was done to the surrounding area as a result of this explosion. This locker was being used as a seat for personnel to remove their boots prior to entering the quarters; luckily no one was in the area at the time of the explosion.
