I doubt that for home use, such exigencies are necessary.

I know that my welders are dangerous.  My rotary phase converter is dangerous.  My 80 gallon air compressor is dangerous.  My many, many edged tools are dangerous.

I do not let children or idiots play in my shop.  Period.  If I did, they'd likely find the documentation and get paper cuts, or drop a binder on their foot.  And anyway -- all warning signage left at its own value -- how many pre-grade school children or idiots do you know who can read?  And I include about half of Congress in the latter category....

I do not waste my time creating and deploying warning labels on my stuff unless it's really, REALLY dangerous. 

Although sometimes I put the following label on the bottom of car batteries:

"Open other end."
