    Lithium battery installation discussion

    I have already invested way to much time and money into solar installation. I cannot afford to have a bunch of installation out there that might fail an inspection report or more important and insurance claim.

    I hear a lot of people say that their insurance is aware of their installation and it is covered, I might have some bad news for you, having a test report/COC and a legit test report/COC is completely different.

    I have an occupation certificate for my property with all the certificates for the alterations, done by registered legit contractors. I put in a claim for a damaged driveway after some heavy flooding. The claim was rejected on the grounds that the tar thickness is too thin, I know it has nothing to do with lithium batteries, however I have been involved in a few R200k claims and boy you better make sure you cross all the T's and dot all the I's.

    That is what this thread is going to be all about, making sure that when you bump the battery in your garage, mounted less than 1.2 AFFL which is covered by a so called test report/COC, you understand why your R2 000 000.00 claim might not be covered. In some cases you dont need a book full of regulations to realize that a little common sense will help you understand the dangers of installing a lithium battery less than 1.2 m in a garage where you parks cars.

    Anyway lets get on with it.

    Comments are my opinion, unless regulations are attached to support the comment. This is social media, not a court room.
