Employing sidecars to support separated racks

When battery racks are situated apart from their respective battery breakers, sidecars should be employed to enhance connectivity between the batteries and the breakers.

Note

If racks are NOT separated and sidecars are NOT used, proceed to the next section below. If racks ARE separated and sidecars ARE used, disregard the next section and proceed instead to “Appendix C: Employing Sidecars” on page 44.
