4 Pyrotechnic composition No limits are given for the net explosive content (NEC)1) of Category 4 articles in this standard. 5 Construction (type test and batch test) When tested in accordance with 6.1 and 6.2 of EN 16261-3:2012, the article dimensions and gross mass shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s declaration (including tolerances). The orientation of mortars shall be verified by inspection according to 6.3 of EN 16261-3:2012, during type test. When the orientation of mortars in combinations is not visible, the maximum firing angle shall be displayed on the label and verified by visual inspection according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 6 Means of ignition 6.1 Identification (type test and batch test) The means of ignition shall be clearly visible or shall be indicated by labelling or instructions where applicable. Conformity to this requirement shall be verified by visual examination according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 6.2 Protection (type test and batch test) Where appropriate, the means of ignition shall be protected to avoid accidental ignition of the fireworks. Conformity to this requirement shall be verified by visual examination according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 7 Performance 7.1 Properties to be checked before functioning tests 7.1.1 Loose pyrotechnic composition after mechanical conditioning (type test) When tested in accordance with 6.8 of EN 16261-3:2012, the loose pyrotechnic composition found outside the article after mechanical conditioning shall be weighed. The mass of the whole loose material shall comply with manufacturer's specifications (if any) and the mass of loose pyrotechnic composition shall not exceed
3 % of the NEC and not more than 1 g for each item tested. If the pyrotechnic composition cannot be separated from the loose material, the same limits shall apply to the whole loose material.
1) The NEC has an influence (directly or indirectly) on the safety distances. For Category 4 fireworks, it is agreed that no fixed minimum safety distances are defined, contrary to Category 1, 2 and 3 fireworks. The safe use of Category 4 fireworks is one of the major responsibilities of the person with specialist knowledge who should determine the minimum safety dis
