The purpose of this paper is to illustrate when and where the installation of surge protective devices (SPDs) is required in Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). BESS systems contain AC/DC converters and battery banks implemented in concrete constructions or in. . For grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS), grounding and bonding is essential for safety and performance. The goal of grounding and bonding is to achieve customer-targeted resistance levels. They are: A direct strike to the lightning protection system; a strike near the structure; a strike to the service lines connected to the structure; and a strike near the electrical lines entering the structure which will induce. . The Lightning Protection Institute is a nationwide not-for-profit organization founded in 1955 to promote lightning protection education, awareness, and safety. They store surplus energy generated by renewable sources such as photovoltaic or wind power plants and feed it back into the power grid when required. Hence the safe passage of lightning inally ends with grou s (BESS). .
