If an energy storage system (battery) is burning, immediately contact PPL Electric Utilities, and wait for their personnel to arrive.

• Isolate the area at least 300 feet in all directions. Keep unauthorized persons away.
• Protect exposures outside of the immediate hazard area, such as trees and buildings, to prevent fire from spreading.
• Wait for PPL Electric Utilities personnel to give the go-ahead to begin firefighting.
• Use a firefighting method appropriate for the specific chemistry of the battery. For example, if ignition has occurred in a lithium-ion battery bank, use a copious amount of water to prevent propagation to adjacent battery banks.
