The transmission bank for the power supply probably caused a fire that engulfed and destroyed a passenger plane in South Korea in January towards local authorities.
Air aircraft set on fire At the Gimhae International Airport on January 28, in the south of the country – which is why three people on board held minor injuries.
On Friday, the South Korean Ministry of Transport announced that the temporary results of the investigation show that the fire may have started because the insulation inside the Power Bank battery has broken down.
The electricity bank was found in a luggage area where a fire was first discovered, and its debris had traces of Sorch, the statement said.
Investigators couldn’t say what may have caused the battery break, he added.
The update is also based only on temporary findings and is not the final report on the aircraft accident, Airbus A321ceo.
Air Force companies around the world have banned power banks for years to check luggage for security problems related to lithium-ion batteries within the device.
These batteries can produce extreme heat and fire if damage or production errors cause a short circuit.
Lithium-ion batteries of any kind have been banned from the burden of passenger planes since 2016, according to the Directive of the International Civil Aviation Organization.
In the week after the Air Busan fire, the airline has further tightened these rules, announcing that they will no longer allow passengers to hold the bank bank in their built -in luggage.
The carrier said that new rules were a response to increasing the number of banks that were overheated.
An increasing number of airline companies – including China Airlines and Thai Airways – introduce similar rules, with Singapore Airlines and its cheap Scoot units have become the latest that will ban the use and filling of banks on board from April 1.
On February 28, the South Korean government also announced that passenger passenger flights in the country will have to carry portable batteries and chargers on their own person, instead of storing them in overhead sections.
