We believe it would be safer to place itindoors. However, if outdoor installation is necessary, we can installthe battery inside a panel with a fan for protection. Since IP65-ratedbatteries are rare, and for battery it would be more appropriate to usea wall-mounted installation instead of a rack?UNOPS reply:All bidders shall abide with battery capacity and IP rating shall be suitable for outdoor indtallation, noting that the IP rating is required only for the battery closure
