Frequently asked
Is this sign suitable for both indoor panels and outdoor switchyards?
Yes, it works in both settings. For outdoor use, choose Colorbond or aluminium for durability; indoors, polypropylene is cost-effective and sufficient.
What defines 'authorised personnel' for electrical equipment?
Typically a licensed electrician, qualified technician, or employee who has completed electrical safety training and been formally approved by the organisation to access that equipment.
Can I attach this directly to a metal cabinet?
Yes. Use the pre-drilled holes with bolts, screws, or adhesive-backed mounting. Metal cabinets provide a secure, clean installation surface.
Do you supply adhesive-backed versions?
Standard signs use holes for mechanical fastening. Adhesive options can be discussed with sales; vinyl material works well with industrial-grade adhesive.
How many signs should I order for a large facility?
A good rule of thumb is one sign per electrical cabinet or room entrance. Trade accounts can calculate exact quantities and receive bulk pricing—contact our team for a site-specific quote.
