In a Medium Voltage Switchgear room where a batteries (ABSOLYTE GX) 125VDC, 350AH are install for purpose of powering protective relays do i need to install both eyewash and shower?
 
Osha's only requirement for eyewash stations is for employees using corrosive chemicals. That's it. No corrosive, no eyewash or shower.

We have a very similar set up at my plant. We dont have eyewashes or showers.

Personally, I think running water lines into an electrical equipment room is a bad idea. If they decide it is required, I would push for a portable "eyewash" solution.
