6.8.4 BATTERY COMPARTMENT

Install the generator battery in its own, vented compart-
ment. Place the battery compartment away from any
source of heat, sparks or flame.
Provide ventilation openings in the battery compart-
ment. The minimum size of openings should be 2
square inches at the top of the compartment. Mount the
battery on a strong, rigid supporting structure, where
leaks and spills of battery fluid will not cause damage.
