Safe use of e-mobility and devices with li-ion battery

Almost every rechargeable device or electric vehicle contains a lithium-ion battery (Li-ion). Recharging these batteries is not without risk. For example, devices may explode or catch fire. This course will teach you more about the precautions and what you should do in case of an incident.

Why?

The use of Li-ion batteries involves risks. This course creates awareness and tells you more about the various precautions you can take. The correct approach prevents accidents and extends the service life of the battery. However, if something does go wrong, then you know what to do to limit the damage. Carrying out small electrical tasks (e.g. taping a charging cable) also involves risks. As such, our e-learning course ‘Carrying out minor electrical work safely’ complements this course perfectly.
