About the Course:

This Installing Battery Equipment microcredential provides PV and energy storage technicians with the knowledge and hands-on experience to safely install battery systems in compliance with national codes and workplace safety standards. Learners will apply NFPA 70 (NEC) requirements for use, installation, and construction of battery systems, while adhering to OSHA and NFPA 70E safety practices. Through VR-based simulations, participants will perform step-by-step battery installations, including labeling, ventilation setup, and spill response readiness. The course emphasizes safety, code compliance, and professional workmanship. To learn more about advanced hands-on training, explore our PV Training Course Online.

Learning Objectives:

  • Interpret and apply relevant NFPA 70 (NEC) Articles governing battery installation and system construction.
  • Follow NFPA 70E standards for electrical safety and personal protective equipment (PPE) in the workplace.
  • Apply OSHA regulations for handling, lifting, and securing batteries safely.
  • Perform safe and correct installation of batteries and associated equipment following manufacturer and code specifications.
  • Identify and label battery circuits, terminals, and enclosures per NEC requirements.
  • Implement safety measures for spill control, ventilation, and enclosure integrity.
  • Verify grounding, polarity, and system continuity after installation.

Course delivered via LMS and requires an Oculus VR headset for hands-on VR simulations.
