Loose leisure battery

[Vinci]

Should a leisure battery and gubbins under a passenger seat be secured?
Having some work done, so first time exposed since conversion, and electrician not impressed with what he has found.
Have asked for photos.

I think its considered good practise to fix/clamp them down
Imagine having a roll over type accident and ending up on your side or roof and the battery shorting out on seat base !!

That’s exactly what the electrician said.

Too much stored energy to not spend a tenner on a clamp

You may find that in the event of an accident your insurance company will not pay up if they find the batteries were/are not secured. They will use any excuse not to pay up.
