I'm moving slowly here to take any/all safety precautions with my battery bank build so please be patient and excuse any juvenile questions. I've posted here before about working on these A123 packs but this is slightly different topic and wanted to open a different thread.
I have two questions re: handling of these packs:
(1) What precautions should I take in moving/handling these units particularly with the connectors hanging off of each end. When they were first delivered I could have sworn that I felt a little buzz on my bare arms when I picked them up to relocate them to my garage from the driveway. I can only imagine it was from my skin touching the terminals on both sides simultaneously. I would like to avoid any unnecessary shock or surprises when moving these around. What precautions am I overlooking when it comes to handling?
(2) Some of the packs are labeled POS like the one in the pictures. I have a few others that are labeled NEG. When it comes to connecting these together to build 18s 48v packs what is the most efficient way to do so? Do those stickers mean the entire module is positive or just the side the pack that is labeled?
Thanks!
