  • Is the intention of PAS 63100 just to provide protection against fire etc. caused by the BESS - rather than from the additional hazards of exposing the BESS fire (e.g. a battery system engulfed in an 'ordinary' house fire)?

    Second para of Section 0: Introduction explains the aim ... I guess the question is based around the choice of preposition in the title, 'of' ? An alternative preposition might also be equally confusing, so perhaps best explained in the introduction?
