Description
This presentation will summarize the findings of each test series as it relates to the interests of AHJs, the fire service, and insurance industry. In 2022, UL conducted three series of full-scale tests with mockup residential energy storage systems in residential garage structures to address concerns from authorities having jurisdiction, the insurance industry, and the fire service. The first test series includes full-scale two-car garage structure experiments conducted under laboratory conditions to examine the impact of battery involvement in compartment fire behavior and response to firefighter ventilation operations. The second and third test series developed data to understand the relationship between battery gas releases and the resultant deflagration hazards to typical residential garage structures and first responders. |
