Good Afternoon llm and Kevin
I would like to update you on the project at 5'l Butler Ave. We are installing 17 Solar PV modules and LG chem Battery.
The battery storage system being installed in the basement has a 9.8 KWH storage capacity. Based on the ESS
Memorand'um iss-ued
-by the state the second sentence states " ESS installations under 20 KWh are not currently
regulated and shall be installed in accordance with ihe manufacturer's instructions and listing requirements.' This battery
(LG CHEM RESU 1OH ) is below the 20 KWH Threshold at 9.8 I(VVH.

The listing and manufacturer instructions and listing requirements were provided with the application' I have also attached
them to this email as well. This battery is under the 20 KWH threshold.
We also place fire rated plyvvood behind the ba1tery and equipment already as noted on the planset page PV 2.1, I have
attached those spec sheets as well.
A hard wired heat detector lo a hard wired master smoke detector will be installed if one is not present already in the
home on the day of install.
I have attached the fire permit application to this email. I will mail this out to the Yarmouth Fire Dept Attn to Fire
Prevention with a $50.00 fee. (9/17 will be mailed out)
Please let me know if anything else is required.
Thank you

Re: Joint Memorandum Superseding Guidance for Energy Storage System (ESS)
In$tellations in Onc-and 15'6-f.smity Dwellings issued by the Department of Fire Servicesand Division of Professional Licensure
To whom i! may conccm.
Sunrun is committed to the safe instailalion of cnergy storage systems ( "r'SS') in residential dwellings.
This letrer is intended to address the May 21 Joint Memorandum on ESS Lrstallations in One-and
Two-Family Dwellings ("original Guidancd') and the subsecj:enr Jutro 7 Joint Memoraodum
(" Superseding Guidance"). Sunrun apprcciates the clarifications provided by the Departmenr of Firc
Services and Division ol- Professional Licenswe in the Superseding Guidance which provides a clearer
path lor permitting larger ESS installations in onc-and two-family dw.ellings.
Critically, the Superseding Guidance makes it clear that ESS installetions with a caoecitv of 20 kWhgr less should not be subiect to the additional requirements provided in the memoratrdum. As
noted in the Superseding Guidance, ESS installations under 20 kWh should be insralled il compliance
rvith manufacluter's instructions and listing requiremenls. Sunrun recommends the application of NFpA
855:2020 Standarul.for the [nstallation af Stationary Enertg.v Storage,$,srern.r for thesJ systems 1<l ensure
sat-e and consistent requiremeuts in the Cornmonwealth. Sunnm's ESS installations rutder 20 kWh are
desigucd. nnd instalied in accordance with all applicable codes. regulations, and manufacturer's
instrrrctions-
For ESS installations grcater than 20 kWh in rcsidential dwellings. the Supcrseding Guidance relies on
the'lrlFPA 855:2020 as an alternative per 52? CMR l-00: 1.4 equivalencies, altentatives, and
rnodiJications. The Superseding Cuidance made important clarifioations to thc Original Guidirncc
removing problematic requirements including requiring I hour fire rated enclosures in all locarions
including attached garages and exterior walls, being marked 'Tor use in residential dwelling units," and
requirrng sprinklers in a basement with an ESS rnstallation. The clarifications moved the Superseding
Guidance into much closer alignment with the model code. Sunrun's designs aad standard operating -
prcrcedures for IISS installations over 20 k\\'h will alip with ciurent stare guidancc and the NFPA.
We appreciate your consideration in this matter and we look forward to providing safe ESS insallations
tbt our customers.
Respectfirlly Submitted,
