What UN38.3 testing covers and why it's essential for shipping battery packs internationally.
Lithium batteries are classified as dangerous goods for transport. UN38.3 certification is the passport that lets them travel by air, sea and road.
What the tests cover
Altitude simulation, thermal cycling, vibration, shock, external short circuit, impact, overcharge and forced discharge — eight tests that prove the pack is safe in transit.
Documentation
Beyond the test summary, shipments need correct classification, packaging, labels and a dangerous goods declaration.
