Labelling a Grid Connected Battery Installation - CPD362

This course is designed to walk you through the essential labelling requirements for battery energy storage systems connected to the grid — including systems with backup supply modes.

You’ll learn exactly which labels are required, where they go, and how to ensure they’re compliant, durable, and clearly presented. We’ll also cover smart ways to reduce label clutter and avoid unnecessary or outdated labels that can cause inspection issues.

Battery labelling can feel overwhelming.

There’s a lot to consider — from multiple power sources and backup circuits to hazard warnings and shutdown procedures.

And with battery audits and compliance checks on the rise, labelling mistakes are becoming one of the most common reasons for failed inspections.

That’s why we’ve built this course — to simplify the standards and give you clear, practical guidance from experienced inspectors working in the field.

We’ll break it down step-by-step with visual examples, updated terminology from the latest standards, and tips to help you get it right the first time.

You’ll also get access to our free Battery Labelling Checklist, which outlines all the key labels needed for the inverter, switchboard, and battery — helping you stay compliant and confident on every job.
