45. Testing of Batteries Charger
A battery is an energy source and care has to be observed in handling them.
Batteries must not pose any danger to people, not even under extreme conditions.
They should therefore be evaluated thoroughly before being put into use with an effective set of battery tests.
The tests ensure that batteries fulfil legal, industry and manufacturer requirements.

제 주변의 전기 전문가는 전기를 가장 무서워합니다.
너무 잘 알아서 그런가봅니다.
전기를 모르는 사람은 전기 위험에 많이 두려워 하지 않고, 막연하게 위험하다 정도로 인식하고 있죠!!
눈에 보이지도 않고, 만져지지도 않고, 냄새도 없는 전기
그래서 더 점검이 필요한 부분입니다~
