Technical FAQs 4

Are battery rooms a fire risk?

Battery rooms, especially those housing large energy storage systems (ESS), are critical components of modern infrastructure. However, they also pose significant fire risks due to the chemical nature of batteries, particularly lithium-ion (Li-ion) and lead-acid batteries.

What are the safety requirements related to batteries & Battery rooms?

Employers must consider exposure to these hazards when developing safe work practices and selecting personal protective equipment (PPE). That is where Article 320, Safety Requirements Related to Batteries and Battery Rooms comes in.

How is battery room compliance interpreted?

Battery room compliance can be interpreted differently depending on your battery type, amount of cells or multi-cell units in a common area, volume of electrolyte and voltage present. Although the code is specific about requirements, the local interpretation can vary depending on the end users experience or awareness.

Are lithium-ion batteries a fire hazard?

However, they also pose significant fire risks due to the chemical nature of batteries, particularly lithium-ion (Li-ion) and lead-acid batteries. To mitigate these risks, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has established stringent fire safety requirements for battery rooms.
