Hi Gary,

NFPA 1, Section 52 is very comprehensive.

Also, see IEEE Std 1679.1, " IEEE Guide for the Characterization and Evaluation 
of Lithium-Based Batteries in Stationary Applications."

Best regards,

DON GIES
Field Service Engineer

Hello Experts,
My client is using large capacity lithium-ion battery backup units in his 
facility

The BBU's themselves are safety approved and also have UL9540A testing done at 
the rack level.

We are looking for code consultation (NFPA and ICC/IFC) to gather requirements 
around the following:


  1.  Storage of batteries before installation in the facility.
  2.  Ventilation and fire suppression requirements
  3.  Spacing requirements
  4.  Any other code requirements that apply at the facility for use of these 
BBU's.

If you are able to assist with the request and have a code expert that can 
provide the consultation, please let me know.

Cheers,
Gary Tornquist
