USA - Special Conditions for Non-Rechargeable Lithium Battery Installation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) [1300] proposes special conditions for a supplemental type certificate for installing an inflatable restraint system with non-rechargeable lithium batteries on seats in certain transport category airplanes. These airplanes, as modified by AmSafe, will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes. This design feature is a non-rechargeable lithium battery. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These proposed special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards. Affected Products - Non-rechargeable lithium batteries. Protection against dangerous goods,, Galvanic cells and batteries, Air transport Proposeddate of adoption: To be determined Proposed date of entry into force: To be determined Final date for comments: 17 April 2017 |
