[RE-wrenches] Energy Storage and Working Spaces for Other Equipment

[Jason Szumlanski]

I'm seeing a lot of pictures of LiPO battery systems and people are
mounting equipment above them like load centers, inverters with
disconnects, and other serviceable enclosures. Some of these battery
systems are 24 inches deep or more. This seems to violate NEC 110.26
requirements for the other serviceable equipment, but the pictures are
proudly displayed as models of success. Even slender Tesla Powerwalls stick
out significantly when stacked 2 or 3 deep and would be more than 6 inches
deeper than a standard load center. Sure, the battery cabinets make great
places to rest tools while working, but does anyone else see this as
problematic?
