Additional Requirements for air transport:
1. Cells and batteries must be protected so as to prevent short circuits. This includes protection
against contact with conductive materials within the same packaging that could lead to a short
circuit.
2. Cells and batteries must be manufactured under a quality management program.
3. The Watt-hour rating must be marked on the outside of the battery case except those
manufactured before 1 January 2009.
4. Cells and batteries must be packed in strong outer packagings. (Applicable to PI 965 only)
5. Cells and batteries must be packed in inner packagings that completely enclose the cell or battery.
To provide protection from damage or compression to the batteries, the inner packagings must be
placed in a strong rigid outer packaging of one of the packaging types shown below.
6. Each consignment must be accompanied with a document with an indication that:
·the package contains lithium ion cells or batteries;
·the package must be handled with care and that a flammability hazard exists if the package is
damaged;
·special procedures must be followed in the event the package is damaged, to include inspection and
repacking if necessary; and
·a telephone number for additional information.
7. Each package must be labelled with a lithium battery handling label (Figure 7.4.H) in addition to the
Class 9 hazard label (Figure 7.3.W) and Cargo Aircraft Only label.
Each package must be marked in accordance with the requirements of 7.1.4.1(a) and (b) and in
addition the net weight when required by 7.1.4.1(c) must be marked on the package. (Applicable to
PI 965 only)
8. Each package must be capable of withstanding a 1.2 m drop test in any orientation without
(Applicable to PI 965 and 966 only):
·damage to cells or batteries contained therein;
·shifting of the contents so as to allow battery to battery (or cell to cell) contact;
·release of contents.
9. Each package must be labelled with a lithium battery handling label (Figure 7.4.H). (Applicable to
PI 966 and 967 only)
10. A Shipper's Declaration for Dangerous Goods is not required. (Applicable to PI 966 and 967 only)
11. Any person preparing or offering cells or batteries for transport must receive adequate instruction
on these requirements commensurate with their responsibilities.
12. The equipment must be secured against movement within the outer packaging and must be
equipped with an effective means of preventing accidental activation. (Applicable to PI 966 only)
13. The maximum number of batteries in each package must be the minimum number required to
power the equipment plus two spares. (Applicable to PI 966 only)
14. The words “Lithium ion batteries in compliance with Section Ⅱ of PI 966” must be included on the
air waybill, when an air waybill is used. The information should be shown in the “Nature and
