Servicing HGV ADR

Servicing HGV ADR

Added: 19:36 11.07.2008

The company I work for are about to start servicing HGV which carry fuels such as petrol and kerosine. What are the minimum requirements before such a vehicle can be worked upon in a normal HGV workshop, with regards the use of electrically powered tools, ie can they be used in the same area, on non-ADR vehicles whilst the ADR vehicle is being serviced? Is there a requirement for intrinsically safe lighting? Also the compressor for the air powered tools is electrically powered and inside the workshop, is this legally acceptable? The answers to these questions and any other info regarding this subject would be much appreciated. Thank you.
