A battery safety system (10) that includes a battery terminal (18) configured for making an electrical connection (22) to the system (10), an electrical disconnect (36) operable to a disconnected state whereby a battery voltage (30) is electrically isolated from the battery terminal (18), and a connected state, whereby the battery voltage (30) is electrically coupled to the battery terminal (18). The battery safety system (10) also includes and a terminal guard (43) movable to an exposed position (40) effective to allow making the electrical connection (22) to the battery terminal (18), and a protected position (42) effective to prevent electrical contact with the battery terminal (18) other than via the electrical connection (22). The system (10) is configured to prevent the electrical disconnect (36) from being operated to the connected state if the terminal guard (43) is not at the protected position (42). The system (10) provides a double action safety interlock that makes the action of connecting and disconnecting battery voltage (30) to and from battery terminals (18) or battery cables (16) separate from the action of covering and uncovering the battery terminals (18), and so reduces the risk of electrical shock when the battery (24) is being manufactured, installed, serviced, or otherwise handled.
