Can the group tell me if there is any requirement about isolations of lead acid battery terminals? We have a 48V equipment powered by lead acid batteries. The negative of the batteries set is connected to the enclosure. When the batteries need to be replaced, short circuit happens if the tool used to detach the connectors touch the enclosure and the positive of the batteries. Information to disconnect the negative terminal first before replace the batteries is clear in the service manual, but I don't know if only this is sufficient.
