Installing Forklift Battery Chargers In Your Workplace

It is the responsibility of the customer to have the forklift battery chargers wired in by a Qualified Electrical Contractor. Unfortunately forklift engineers and lorry drivers do not have the required training, expertise or insurance to complete mains electrical works.

The charger may or may not come with a cable attached. This is down to the electrical engineer that unwired the charger before collection from its last working environment. This should not significantly affect the cost of installation or time taken to do so.

Sometimes a charger will come with a single or 3 phase plug already attached that has been previously connected by a Qualified Mains Electrical Engineer.

The Qualified Mains Electrical Contractor should have disconnected the charger before collection. It is the customers responsibility to have it ready for when the transport arrives. The forklifts needs to be left with an adequate amount of charge for the on-load and off-load.

We sell a range of battery chargers on our website suitable for all electric forklift trucks and fully powered manual handling equipment – Battery Chargers
