I agree, Brian; especially when the battery system is large. It's
important to design the room so it can be in compliance with NEC 480.9.
(A) Ventilation, (B) Guarding live parts. The locked door qualifies, and
(C) Working space.

Jeremy,
Sometimes the best "enclosure" is a locked room. Is it possible in
this case to wall off the space and provide a locked door with a sign
reading "Authorized Personnel Only" on the door?

Wrenches,
I am looking to install some Surrette dual container batteries. 24- 2v
cells and the inspector is looking for a 'listed' enclosure.
Any takes on this?
