Different markets impose varying technical standards and safety requirements on energy storage systems and electrical equipment. Securing the propercertifications—such as the widely recognized American UL and European CE certifications—is essential for entering the international arena.
The TeraHive Smart Switch, which ensures grid interconnection compatibility, datamonitoring, power backup, and energy distribution, has earned cTUVus certification from TÜV Rheinland, meeting ANSI/UL/CSA 1741, UL 916, and UL60730-1 standards.
These certifications rigorously assess energy efficiency, reliability, and functional safety to ensure sustained high performance. Notably, UL 1741 certification verifies the product’s safe and seamless integration with other energy systems,enabling intelligent dynamic monitoring and adjustment of power distribution and load. This capability effectively removes the 120% distribution limit setby U.S. electrical codes, enhancing system flexibility and energy efficiency.
The TeraHive Energy Suite, an AI-powered home energy management system, has also secured cTUVus certifications for ANSI/UL/CSA 9540, UL 60730-1, and UL 1741& UL 1741 CRD (for power control systems) in both the U.S. and Canada.
These certifications validate the product’s electrical design, control system, andfunctional safety, ensuring protection against overloads, short circuits, andother hazards for both users and equipment. Covering critical aspects such aselectrical and battery fire safety, system reliability, and thermal stability, these standards guarantee the energy storage system operates efficiently within renewable energy integration and smart grid frameworks. Rigorous testing has confirmed reliable performance even under extreme conditions, such as high temperatures and vibrations.
