Solar & Battery Installation and Design
The first in a two-part series, this webinar will cover the installation and inspection of battery systems for residential and commercial scale systems under AS/NZS 5139.
Specifically, attendees will learn about the integration requirements for inverters connected to battery systems, risk analysis, battery arc fault calculations, labelling and international standards applicable to lithium ion batteries. Find out how to select the right product for an application, what parts of AS/NZS 5139 should be applied and how to perform a risk assessment.
