ADR mixed packing provision MP24

Explosives listed in the MP24 table may be mixed: 'A' pairs without a mass limit, 'B' pairs up to 50 kg of explosive substances in total.

MP24 allows goods to be packed with the UN numbers set against them in a cross-reference table of Class 1 entries. Where the table shows A, the two UN numbers may share a package with no special mass limit. Where it shows B, they may share a package provided the explosive substances total no more than 50 kg. A mixed package may need its classification revised under 2.2.1.1, and 5.4.1.2.1 (b) governs the description in the transport document.

Conditions

• The table covers UN 0012, UN 0014, UN 0027, UN 0028, UN 0044, UN 0054, UN 0160, UN 0161, UN 0186, UN 0191, UN 0194, UN 0195, UN 0197, UN 0238, UN 0240, UN 0312, UN 0333, UN 0334, UN 0335, UN 0336, UN 0337, UN 0373, UN 0405, UN 0428, UN 0429, UN 0430, UN 0431, UN 0432, UN 0505, UN 0506, UN 0507 and UN 0509.
• A: no special mass limitation for the pair in one package.
• B: the pair may share a package up to 50 kg of explosive substances in total.

Note. The matrix on page 180 loses its column alignment in the text extraction, so individual A/B cells are not decoded here; consult the printed table for a given pair. Readable patterns: rows 0333 to 0337 carry A against each other, and rows 0012 and 0014 each carry a single A.

Refers to: 2.2.1.1; 5.4.1.2.1 (b).
