Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a grid configuration which prevent short circuit of a battery cell due to growth of grids.SOLUTION: A battery grid as a constituent of a first electrode 10 comprises a frame having a top element, a bottom element, a first side element, and a second side element. The battery grid also includes a plurality of wires provided within the frame and defining a plurality of open areas, and a current collection lug 12 extending from the top element in a first direction. The battery grid further includes at least one feature provided in the battery grid that is configured to reduce the amount of growth of the battery grid in the first direction due to corrosion of the battery grid during the life of the battery grid.
