Technical FAQs 4

Why do battery energy storage systems need grounding and bonding?

For grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS), grounding and bonding is essential for safety and performance. The goal of grounding and bonding is to achieve customer-targeted resistance levels. These low resistance levels allow fault currents to easily discharge into the ground, protecting people, equipment and the BESS itself.

Do I need an external lightning protection system?

Therefore the need for optimized and reliable electrical protection against the influence of lightning and surge events becomes mandatory. A risk assessment per IEC 62305-2 should first be performed to understand better if an external lightning protection system (LPS) is required.

Why do PV systems need grounding & bonding?

While grounding and bonding are critical for any electrical distribution system, it is especially pertinent for PV systems due to the potential of high short circuit and ground-fault currents, as well as the possible and likely exposure to high magnitude and short duration lightning currents.

What is a photovoltaic grounding & bonding book?

This book is designed for energy professionals to expand their understanding of proper grounding and bonding methods for photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage systems.
