Sometimes EEs don't live in the real world. If you look up when crossing
the street, then individual breakers may be right for you...

Subject: lv-ab: batteries connected parallel - revisited
Dear All,
a few weeks ago I inquery about connecting 6 100 Ah batteries parallel.
I received very useful relplies, thank.
I just started to install the cables connecting the batteries together.
My old technician friend visited me, and pointed out,
that there can be a serious problem: if one of the batteries
fail and be short circuited (all cells, he could not really explain how it
can happen) the battery will be heated up by the other batteries,
will generate H2 and finally will explde. So he suggested to install
breakers for each of the batteries.
I don't know if it is really necessery, as it will add cost, complexity
and more possibility for something to go wrong.
What are Your oppinions?
Thanks
