The UN38.3 certification project is actually Article 38.3 in Part 3 of the "United Nations Handbook of Dangerous Goods Transport Tests and Standards" drafted and implemented by the United Nations. The specific definition is based on the "Dangerous Goods Transport Regulations", which only refers to the transportation safety of lithium batteries carry out testing. Lithium batteries are further divided into rechargeable lithium ion batteries and non-rechargeable lithium metal batteries. Each type of lithium battery must be tested without any problems before the UN38.3 safety test report can be issued. At this time, the lithium battery will be recognized as capable Safe transportation (more common such as air transportation, sea transportation), and the packaging method of lithium battery transportation is divided into pure battery separate packaging, packaged with the equipment, and transported on the equipment. Any laboratory capable of UN38.3 testing can issue the report, but if only the UN38.3 report is available, the battery cannot be transported for export in Mainland China. It is also necessary to provide a report on the identification of cargo transportation conditions, referred to as the identification, which is divided into air, sea and land transportation. The identification results of different packages are different. In order to fully guarantee the safety of the goods in the transportation process, the handling of the UN38.3 certification project report for lithium batteries is very necessary and very meaningful.
