Training content: Relevant standards for transportation and identification of lithium batteries (sea, air, land, and railway transportation)

Training time: 3pm on July 7th, 2023

Training location: TPLINK headquarters conference room

Participants: Internal responsible persons of TPLINK

Speaker: Nuocheng Safety Tang Zilong

At the invitation of our partner TPLINK, Tang Zilong, a senior engineer at Nuocheng Safety, will be the internal responsible person of TPLINK to explain and train on the relevant standards for transportation and identification of lithium batteries. The speaker Tang Zilong is a senior lithium battery testing and certification engineer at Nuocheng Safety, with 12 years of experience in the lithium battery testing and certification industry.

The training content is mainly divided into four parts: sea transportation, air transportation, land transportation, and railway transportation. It explains the relevant regulations, packaging requirements, and materials required for applying for transportation appraisal of lithium batteries in each of the four transportation modes.

The following is a brief summary of one of the requirements for applying for sea, air, land, and railway transportation certification in this training.
