Joshua - Aside from the other fine responses you've received, there are also issues related to the evolution of flammable/combustible atmospheres from the battery electrolyte during the charging cycle. Venting of the battery box (it will be in a box, won't it?) is a must to prevent a potentially explosive situation.

Tarver, PE Product Safety Manager Sanmina-SCI Homologation Services San Jose, CA peter.tar...@sanmina-sci.com -----Original Message----- From: Joshua Wiseman Hi all, My marketing department has decided it would be a good idea to put a printer on a battery cart. My question is what standards will I need to test to for this. The power cart will be supplied with a battery charger, 12V lead-acid battery, and a 12Vdc to 120Vac or 12Vdc to 230Vac inverter.
