    Lithium-ion batteries can fail due to external or internal short circuits caused by crashes, misuse, or quality issues. Signs of failure include hissing sounds, smoke, gas, or high heat. Batteries are categorized as green (complete), yellow (defective), or red (severely damaged). High voltage batteries are classified as dangerous goods and have transportation requirements depending on their category - green can be transported with proper packaging, yellow only by road or sea, and red cannot be transported. Proper packaging, labeling, and dangerous goods declarations are required.

    VAULT OF KNOWLEDGE │ TRANSPORT OF HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERIES

    SAFETY ASPECTS FOR LITHIUM-ION


    BATTERIES
    Lithium-ion battery – Charging and discharging through movement of lithium ions.

    Causes for battery failure – External or internal short circuit due to crash, misuse or quality
    issues.

    Signs of battery failure:

    • Hissing sound.
    • Smoke or gas coming out of battery.
    • High heat generation.

    Three categories when analysing a battery:

    • Green – Complete battery, used or new.


    • Yellow – Defective battery.
    • Red – Severely damaged battery.

    TRANSPORT OF HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERIES


    High voltage battery is classified as dangerous goods.

    Battery categories:

    • Green – Allowed to be transported as long as it is packed in the correct way.


    • Yellow – Only allowed to be transported by road or sea.
    • Red – Not allowed to be transported.

    Battery belong to Class 9, Miscellaneous dangerous substances and articles, in the UN
