What is the limit per package excluding equipment for UN3091 section 1?

• A. PAX = 5kg; CAO = 35kg.
• B. PAX = 35kg; CAO = 5kg.
• C. PAX = 10kg; CAO = 10kg.
• D. PAX = 0kg; CAO = 0kg.

Answer: (A)

The limit being tested is how much lithium metal battery material you may ship per package for UN 3091 when counting only the batteries themselves (excluding any equipment). For UN 3091 section 1, the allowed weight depends on the transport mode: up to 5 kg per package on passenger aircraft, and up to 35 kg per package on cargo aircraft. This two-tier rule reflects different risk and handling scenarios between passenger and cargo operations, while counting only the battery weight and not the equipment. The other options don’t match these two specific limits, which is why they aren’t correct.
