codes.
The Tesla Powerwall 3 has met the unit level performance criteria
outlined in ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A when installed as follows:
• The Powerwall must be installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's installation instructions
• No additional non-combustible substrate is required
• Where applicable, a minimum clearance of 1" on the side(s)
of the unit is required to mitigate the risk of side-to-side
propagation to adjacent Powerwall 3 units and walls
• The Powerwall 3 manufacturer installation instructions
require a minimum lateral separation of 4" between units
Page and Section numbers referenced from the test report
are presented in bold type. For example, verification that the
Tesla Powerwall 3 has met the performance criteria outlined
in ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A can be found on pages 17 through

2023 Powerwall 3 ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A:2019 Fourth Edition Test Report Supplemental Guide 3
Summary of Results A comprehensive summary of the required information that must be
included in the unit level test report is provided beginning on page
13 of the test report. This section provides important information
needed to determine residential and fire code compliance where
reduced minimum separation distances are permitted, and where the
unit is intended to be installed on a combustible substrate.
Final verification that the Tesla Powerwall 3 has met the performance
criteria outlined in ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A can be found on pages 17
through 20 of the report. This portion of the 'report can be used as
a checklist to aid in the verification of the unit's conformance to the
performance criteria for the intended installation configurations. Table 9.1
from the test report is divided into two parts, residential and non-
residential installations. It is important to note that Tesla Powerwall 3
was only evaluated for residential installations under the scope of this
testing.
In the unit level test, it was demonstrated that:
• The Powerwall 3 enclosure provides adequate thermal
protection from the wall surface on which it is mounted.
Wall surface temperatures did not exceed 97°C (175°F) of
temperature rise above ambient per 9.2.15 of the test standard;
as such, additional substrate is not required
• Thermal runaway did not propagate past (1) target cell
• Large scale fire testing was conducted with 1" lateral unit
spacing to represent worst-case scenario conditions. Testing
showed the risk of unit-to-unit propagation to adjacent units is
mitigated with 1" unit spacing
• Manufacturer installation instructions dictate 4" minimum
lateral spacing between units to',maintain proper airflow
during normal operation.

Cell Level Construction General product details, including cell and module level construction
and Tests information, are outlined on pages 5 and 6 of the test report. Pages
5 and 37 of the report provide background information and data
collected during cell and module-level testing previously conducted.
This data does not directly correlate to residential or fire code
requirements; rather, it is used to document and compare the
characteristics of different cell chemistries and module designs.
One important value recorded is the temperature at which thermal
runaway occurs. This value is determined in accordance with 7.3.1.9
of the test standard. This temperature of 1880C is used to verify that
an internal fire condition has been established during the Unit Level
test.
Construction Details: Cell Level Powerwall 3 utilizes Lithium Iron Phosphate/Graphite chemistry
based prismatic cells. Cell dimensions, weight and electrical
characteristics are noted on page 5 of the test report.
Figure 2: Photo 1 from Test Report Displaying an Individual Cell
Performance Criteria: Cell Level Application of heat using film heater methodology did result in
a thermal runaway condition; therefore, module level testing was
required (page 37 of the test report)
Cell surface temperature at venting: 1740C
Cell surface temperature at runaway: 1880C
2023 Powerwall 3 ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A:2019 Fourth Edition Test Report Supplemental Guide 5
Module Level
Construction and Tests
Construction Details: Powerwall 3 consists of a single module with, cells positioned within
Module Level a metallic semi-open enclosure. The Powerwall 3 module is designed
without a fully encapsulated metallic enclosure to allow vent gases
to be routed in such a way that increases the overall propagation
resistance of the module; this prevents a dangerous buildup of gases
that could lead to an explosion or deflagration hazard.
The module consists of 26 cells electrically wired in series and
arranged in two rows of (13) prismatic cells; this information can be
found on page 5 of the test report.
Figure 3: Illustration 2 from Test Report
Depicting the Layout of Cells in the Module
Performance Criteria: Application of heat using film heater methodology did result in
Module Level a thermal runaway condition, and the resulting event was not
contained by the module design; therefore, unit level testing was
required.

Unit Level Test: General Section 9: Unit Level Testing information begins on page 7 of the
report. In additional to providing greater detail on the test setup
and unit performance, this portion of the report can also be used
as a checklist to aid in the verification of the testing/aboratorv's
conformance to the test procedure.
Sample and Test Configuration ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A provides for several configurations:
• Residential and non-residential use cases
• Wall and floor mounting
• Indoor and outdoor locations
Tested Configuration Testing was conducted using a single indoor wall-mounted test
configuration that was determined to be representative of all
intended installation configurations.Tesla Powerwall 3 is intended to
be installed in any of the configurations noted below (Section 9.1.1 of
the test report):
• Indoor floor-mounted residential use BESS
• Outdoor ground-mounted residential use BESS
• Outdoor wall-mounted residential use BESS
• Indoor wall-mounted residential use BESS
The testing configuration was adapted to include the characteristics
necessary to be an accurate representative test case for the above
listed scenarios. This determination was made by the testing
laboratory based on allowable installation scenarios for Powerwall
3 in conjunction with rigorous pre-test planning, component level

Initiating and Target Unit Placement
Initiating and target units were affixed directly to the wall without the
utilization of a mounting bracket; this was done to allow testing to be
representative of the worst-case allowable installation configuration.
In this installation configuration, and in accordance with manufacturer
installation instructions, the BESS enclosure is directly secured to
the wall with a single fastener. Installation configuration is noted in
the manufacturer installation instructions as ground-mount Powerwall

Internal Fire Condition: The unit level test begins with the application of heat at a specific
Unit Level Test site selected to present the greatest amount of thermal exposure
to adjacent cells within the module. This application of heat must
result in an internal fire condition in accordance with the module level
test previously conducted.This was verified by testing staff using
temperature data recorded during initiation of the event, compared
against the cell surface temperature at thermal runaway during
the cell level test. This temperature was determined to be 1880C in
accordance with 7.3.1.9 of the test standard - see page 37 of the test
report.
Thermal Runaway was induced consistent with the methodology
determined in the module level test. Internal fire conditions were
confirmed using thermocouples placed inside the initiating unit
to monitor cell level surface temperatures. Thermal runaway
was confirmed in the target and initiation cells with no further
propagation to other cells within the module.

Test Results be included in the unit level report is provided in long form. The unit
level performance criteria table begins on page 16 of the report,
with the applicable performance criteria for residential installations
beginning on page 17.
Unit level performance criteria indicated in Table 9.1 of the test
report provides a basis for the approval of the test report through
satisfactory conformance to all required unit level performance
characteristics.
A summary of key sections of the performance criteria are provided
below.
Cheesecloth DUT was wrapped in cheesecloth during entirety of test procedure.
No flaming or charring was observed outside of the unit, and the
cheesecloth indicator was not burned or charred. The cheesecloth is
noted "as is after the test" on page 23 of the test report. Cheesecloth
is frequently used as a fire indicator in regulatory and safety testing
to assess fire hazards during abnormal operations; similarly, the
cheesecloth is required by the ANSI/CAN/UL 9540A test standard to
ensure an internal fire is contained by the unit level enclosure.

Unit Level Test:
Test Results (cont.)
Target Units: Target unit module surface temperatures did not exceed the
Maximum Temperature temperature at which cell venting occurs (174°C as determined in
accordance with Section 7.3.1.8 of the test standard).
• Maximum instantaneous temperature recorded by
thermocouples was 173.4°C for < is
• Temperature spike remains below cell vent temperatures
but is attributed to a momentary thermocouple short as
denoted in the relevant sections of Table 9.1 in the test
report
• Adjacent thermocouples do not experience similar and
spontaneous temperature spikes as seen in Illustration 12
on page 30 of the test report
• Maximum sustained target unit temperatures were ascertained
using a rolling 5 second average. Maximum sustained target
unit temperature is 96.3°C as indicated in test report
Instrumented Walls: • UL 9540A requires BESS intended for installation on
Maximum Temperature combustible substrates to limit surface temperature on wall
surfaces, to not exceed 97°C temperature rise above ambient
• Maximum recorded wall temperature: 54.6°C (39.1°C rise
over ambient)
• Recorded wall surface temperature rise over ambient is
well below allowed maxima noted per Section 9.2.15 of the
test standard and does not present a hazard of igniting
combustible substrates upon which the BESS is mounted
Deflagration/Explosion Hazards • No flying debris or explosive discharge of gases were observed
during testing
• No sparks, electrical arcing, or other electrical events were
observed during testing
• No damage was observed to the initiating BESS unit or target
BESS units
• No damage was observed to the adjacent walls or ceiling of
the NFPA 286 standard fire test room
