Fire safety: Implement fire safety measures during the installation of a home battery. This can include using fire-resistant materials, maintaining proper ventilation, and following the regulations for placing the battery. Also, keep flammable materials away from the battery.
Security systems: A home battery should be equipped with integrated security systems to prevent overheating, overloading, and short circuits. These systems monitor and regulate the power supply to ensure the battery operates safely.
