Jeremy,Is the inspector citing a specific code rule, necessitating a "listed"
battery enclosure? If no such code rule exists then he is likely unfamiliar
with the requirement and is shooting for 'something'.I have not seen or heard
of such an enclosure, but there are requirements for proper ve
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.

Still, if you put 2 x 4's on the ground between the batteries and the
floor, wouldn't the 2x4's have to be UL listed?

but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Jeremy,
If you do not find a Listed enclosure you do not have to provide one. In
other words if it does not exist it cannot be required. I have yet to hear
of one. It was so with wind generators for a long time till one came out.

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?
