A.In the Note of DGR 7.1.4.2 it says: ?gWhere an overpack contains more than one UN number, the total quantity of dangerous goods should be shown by UN number.?h Figure 8.1.N on Page 609 is an actual example where it shows: ?gTotal quantity per overpack, 40 kg, 120 L?h.

UN1866 Resin Solution | 3 | III | 12 fibreboard boxes X 4L | 309 |
UN1845 Dry Ice | 9 | III | 5 kg | 904 |
| | | OVERPACK USED X 15 | |
| | | #001 - #015 | |
| | | Total quantity per overpack, 48L, 5kg | |
UN1866 Resin Solution | 3 | III | 10 fibreboard boxes X 4L | 309 |
UN1845 Dry Ice | 9 | III | 5 kg | 904 |
| | | OVERPACK USED | |
| | | #016 | |
| | | Total quantity per overpack, 40L, 5kg |
Even if the two dangerous goods are both shown in kg or in litres, if the UN numbers are different, you must not add the quantities together. You must show the quantities by each UN number, thus, ?gTotal quantity per overpack. 40L, 5L.?h or ?gTotal quantity per overpack, 5kg, 15kg.?h
