Course Outline & Objectives: | Commercial & Residential Energy Storage Systems
Energy storage systems (ESS) are increasingly being
installed throughout the country, especially in Utah. Understanding
the requirements governing ESS, and knowing how the systems are
to be installed, is essential. This course will focus on commercial and
residential energy storage systems and will outline the key
requirements and concepts for ESS. Key topics to be covered include
UL 9540 listing, large-scale fire testing (UL 9540A), maximum
equipment and system sizes, allowable locations,
separation between battery units, clearances around equipment,
disconnects/shutdown devices, and overcurrent protection.
Example system diagrams will also be explained to help attendees
understand the layout and equipment used for a variety of
commonly installed residential ESS. This course will be beneficial for
inspectors, plan reviewers, fire officials, installers, and designers.
The course will be based on the 2018 IFC, 2020 NEC, and Utah State
Amendments of the 2015 IRC |
