New Guide: Circuit Protection Strategy for Battery Energy Storage Systems

As the power density of modern batteries grow, integrators are striving to offer customers more power in a smaller footprint. However, with higher power levels, the need for a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) circuit protection strategy becomes increasingly important.

Within a BESS, the major areas of concern are protection against electrical overcurrent, ground faults, arc flash, and transient overvoltage to help mitigate equipment damage and downtime. This guide discusses:

The various components of a BESS container
Advantages and disadvantages of ac and dc coupled solar systems
BESS circuit protection needs and applications
Circuit protection success stories

Free Safety Webinar: Why GFCIs with “Ground Check” are the Future of Electrical Safety

New technology blends a ground-fault circuit interrupter’s (GFCI’s) fast reaction time with proactive ground monitoring technology, which ensures a safe and reliable ground-fault path. This new pre-emptive approach originated from the special-purpose GFCI (SPGFCI) standard, but it is time to apply it to Class-A GFCIs.
