High Voltage Signs

High voltage areas are no place for uncertainty. One wrong step near energized equipment can change a life forever. That’s why clear, permanent signage matters. Our high voltage signs are made for contractors, utilities, and industrial facilities that need dependable warnings that stay readable in heat, rain, and sun year after year.

Each sign meets OSHA 1910.145 and ANSI Z535 safety communication standards. That means correct signal words, color contrast, and icon spacing. We design, print, and finish everything in-house using industrial materials built for real field use, not just office walls.


Why professionals rely on our high voltage signs

Made for harsh environments
Our aluminum and vinyl signs survive direct sunlight, humidity, oil, and abrasion. They don’t bubble, peel, or fade even when mounted outdoors on metal housings or transformers.

Built for compliance
We follow the full OSHA and ANSI format that inspectors expect to see. Red for danger, orange for warning, and yellow for caution. No shortcuts, no guesswork.

Custom voltage and logo printing
Upload your voltage levels, department names, or company logo. You’ll get a free proof before we print to make sure every sign fits your standard.

Multiple material options
Choose from rigid aluminum, PVC plastic, or laminated vinyl decals. All materials are chemical and UV resistant, designed for a lifespan of up to ten years outdoors.

Fast turnaround and reorders
Proofs go out within one business day. Once approved, we print and ship in three to five days. Reorders are even faster since your files stay on record.


Common uses

  • Switchgear, control panels, and disconnects

  • Transformers and generator housings

  • Substations, solar inverters, and battery rooms

  • High voltage fencing and machinery

  • Electrical rooms and service entrances

These signs are used by contractors, facility engineers, and safety directors who can’t afford cheap decals that fail inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these meet the labeling requirements for NFPA 70E and OSHA 1910.145?

Yes. The layouts follow both standards. Signal words, colors, and icons match the ANSI Z535 format that inspectors expect to see in substations and switchgear rooms.

What voltage levels should be marked as “High Voltage”?

Most facilities label anything above 480 volts as “High Voltage.” For distribution gear, 240 volts and above usually gets a WARNING or CAUTION depending on your internal electrical safety program.

Are aluminum or vinyl signs better for electrical gear?

It depends on where you mount them. Aluminum works best for outdoor switchgear, transformers, and generator enclosures that see direct weather. Vinyl labels are better for indoor control panels and disconnects where surface temperatures are stable.

Do you offer reflective aluminum for perimeter fencing or outdoor substations?

Yes. Reflective aluminum improves visibility at night or in poor weather. It’s common for substations, solar farms, and utility fences that require 24-hour hazard identification.

Can you print our site’s lockout or arc flash warning on the same sign?

Yes. Many safety teams combine “High Voltage” with lockout reminders or PPE notices. You can upload your layout or request a combined design so it passes both electrical and safety audits.

Can you pre-drill aluminum signs to fit existing panels?

Yes. Just send your hole spacing or a quick photo of your existing mounting pattern. We’ll cut and drill to match so you can replace signs without drilling new holes.

Do inspectors care if the voltage number is printed on the sign?

They do. Most EHS and electrical inspectors expect to see the actual voltage listed on or near the equipment. We can print specific values like “480 VOLTS” or “4160 VOLTS” right into the artwork so there’s no confusio

What’s the best cleaning method for long-term maintenance?

Use a mild detergent or alcohol wipe to remove dirt and oil. Avoid harsh solvents. For vinyl signs, wipe gently with a microfiber cloth to preserve the laminate.
