Danger High Voltage Marking

In Simple Terms

F1 cars must have special warning symbols and bright orange coloring on their high-voltage electrical components to make them easily recognizable and safe. This applies to the main electrical enclosure, the MGU-K (the hybrid power unit), and any other high-voltage boxes on the car.

• The ES Main Enclosure, MGU-K, and external HV boxes must display ISO 7010 'Danger High Voltage' warning symbols
• At least 70% of the ES Main Enclosure's outer surface must be orange colored
• These markings ensure safety by making high-voltage components immediately visible and identifiable to personnel
• The requirement applies to all high-voltage electrical systems on the car
