We are happy to announce that the Draft for Public Comment for IET Code of Practice for Electrical Energy Storage Systems 2nd Edition is now live.

This Code of Practice looks at Electrical Energy Storage System (EESS) applications and provides information for practitioners to safely and effectively specify, design, install, commission, operate and maintain a system. This 2nd Edition has been updated to take account of developments in the industry, and progress in standardisation.

The scope of this Code of Practice addresses EESS intended for fixed installation applications including:

  • individual dwellings
  • commercial applications, including multi-occupancy buildings and multi-occupancy residential buildings
  • industrial applications.

and covers:

  • electrochemical energy storage systems in electrical installations
  • integration into low voltage (LV) power systems (AC and DC), and
  • systems aligned with existing standards, regulations and guidance.
