Yes. The test summary requirement applies to manufacturers and distributors of lithium or sodium ion cells and batteries. Therefore, a test summary must be made available for lithium or sodium ion battery-powered vehicles and other vehicles containing lithium or sodium ion batteries. C.10 Is the test summary valid for a defined period?
It can be used in any marine and offshore application. Lithium batteries include lithium-ion, lithium-alloy, lithium metal, and lithium polymer types. This section provides an overview of the technology and focuses on the characteristics of Li-ion batteries common to the majority of available batteries.
The provisions of the DGR with respect to lithium and sodium ion batteries may also be found in the IATA Battery Shipping Regulations (BSR) 12th Edition. In addition to the content from the DGR, the BSR also has additional classification flowcharts and detailed packing and documentation examples for these batteries.
If a newly produced lithium cell or battery design is being tested for the first time, then the edition of the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria in effect at the time that the cell or battery designs are first tested must be used. For example, a new lithium-ion battery design is produced for the first time in March 2023.
This instruction must include packaging materials and lithium battery marks, as necessary. The instruction must also include the transport method and mode of transport that must be followed; this must include a clear statement on applicable prohibitions. Example 1 - Lithium-Ion Battery Test Summary
