Though the main batteries have low voltage, a shorted or grounded battery can
produce enough current to burn personnel or combustible materials.
Bien que le voltage des batteries principales soit peu élevé, le court-circuit ou la
mise à la masse d’une batterie peut produire sufsamment de courant pour brûler
des matériaux combustibles ou causer des brûlures corporelles graves.
Obwohl Hauptbatterien eine niedrige Spannung haben, können sie doch bei
Kurzschluß oder Erdung genug Strom abgeben, um brennbare Materialien zu
entzünden oder Verletzungen bei Personen hervorzurufen.
Sebbene le batterie di alimentazione siano a basso voltaggio, una batteria in
corto circuito o a massa può fornire corrente sufficiente da bruciare materiali
combustibili o provocare ustioni ai tecnici di manutenzione.
Aunque las baterías principales tienen un voltaje bajo, una batería cortocircuitada
o con contacto a tierra puede producir la corriente suciente como para quemar
material combustible o provocar quemaduras en el personal.
