2.1.3.5 Assignment of fireworks to Hazard Divisions
2.1.3.5.1 Fireworks shall normally be assigned to hazard divisions 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4 on the basis of test data derived from Test Series 6. However, since the range of such articles is very extensive and the availability of test facilities may be limited assignment to hazard divisions may also be made in accordance with the procedure in 2.1.3.5.2.
2.1.3.5.2 Assignment of fireworks to UN numbers 0333,0334,0335 or 0336 may be made on the basis of analogy, without the need for Test Series 6 testing, in accordance with the default table in 2.1.3.5.6. Such assignment shall be made with the agreement of the competent authority.
2.1.3.5.3 Where fireworks of more than one Hazard Division are packaged in the same package they shall be classified on the basis of the highest Hazard Division unless test data derived from Test Series 6 indicate otherwise.
2.1.3.5.4 The addition of new types of fireworks to column 1 of the default list in 2.1.3.5.6 shall only be made on the basis of full test data submitted to the UN Sub-Committee on the Transport of Dangerous Goods for consideration.
2.1.3.5.5 Test data derived by competent authorities which validates, or contradicts the assignment of Hazard Division to firework types and/or sub-divisions by calibre/weight in column 4 of the table in 2.1.3.5.6 to hazard divisions in column 5 shall be submitted to the UN Sub-committee on the Transport of Dangerous Goods for information (see also note 3 in 2.1.3.2.3).
