All outdoor equipment enclosures/material shall be weatherproof, and all metal parts shall be corrosion and/or abrasion resistant, and the degree or protection shall be at least IP54 as per IEC 60529 or equivalent NEMA Standard. The degree of protection for all indoor equipment shall be IP41 as per IEC 60529 or equivalent NEMA Standard.
Abstract—Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) have gained potential recognition for the grid services they can offer to power systems. Choosing an appropriate BESS location plays a key role in maximizing benefits from those services.
It has been recognized that their potential growth depends on large scale deployment of utility scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs). This is because BESSs can provide multitude services to regional transmission and distribution systems, utilities and consumers .
Emergence of smart grid technologies and advancements in transmission and distribution systems are few examples of these developments. It has been recognized that their potential growth depends on large scale deployment of utility scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs).
For a BESS with a Maximum Connected Capacity greater than 11 kVA, the power supply of the interface protection shall include an uninterruptible power supply. The loss of the auxiliary voltage on either the interface protection or on the BESS control system shall trigger the interface switch without delay.
From that time on, BESS Meters shall be installed within the Consumer Premises, as close as possible to BESS inverters. The Consumer shall ensure that its BESS complies with the requirements defined in the present standards throughout the overall lifetime of the facility.
