PAS 63100 battery fire placement

Also known as PAS 63100:2024 battery placement, Publicly Available Specification 63100 battery placement

PAS 63100 battery fire placement is the siting part of PAS 63100 (Publicly Available Specification 63100), which deals with fire-safety placement for domestic battery energy storage systems.

PAS 63100 battery fire placement is the siting and location context inside PAS 63100 (Publicly Available Specification 63100), the BSI (British Standards Institution) specification for fire-safety requirements when small-scale BESS (battery energy storage systems) are installed in domestic dwellings. It is concerned with where battery units are installed, including whether they are outdoors where practicable, separated from habitable rooms and means of escape, ventilated to outside where indoor locations are used, and considered alongside fire detection, fire compartmentation and external factors that affect fire safety.
