Overview of Lithium Batteries. A battery is defined as two or more cells which are electrically connected together and fitted with devices necessary for use, for example, a case, terminals, marking and protective devices. The term "lithium battery" refers to a family of different chemistries, comprising many types of cathodes and electrolytes.
The quantity of lithium metal contained in any piece of equipment must not exceed 500 g per battery and 12 g per cell. Maximum net quantity of lithium batteries or cells per package (excluding the equipment) is 5 kg for Passenger and Cargo Aircraft (PAX) and 35 kg for Cargo Aircraft Only (CAO) shipments.
