Technical Notes:
1. 1A004 includes equipment and components that have been identified, successfully tested to national standards or otherwise proven effective, for the detection of or defence against 'radioactive materials', "biological agents", chemical warfare agents, 'simulants' or "riot control agents", even if such equipment or components are used in civil industries such as mining, quarrying, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, medical, veterinary, environmental, waste management, or the food industry.
2. 'Simulant': A substance or material that is used in place of toxic agent (chemical or biological) in training, research, testing or evaluation.
3. For the purposes of 1A004, 'radioactive materials' are those selected or modified to increase their effectiveness in producing casualties in humans or animals, degrading equipment or damaging crops or the environment.
1. A. 005. Body armour and components therefor, as follows:
a. Soft body armour not manufactured to military standards or specifications, or to their equivalents, and specially designed components therefor;
b. Hard body armour plates providing ballistic protection equal to or less than level IIIA (NIJ 0101.06, July 2008), or "equivalent standards".
N.B.1.: For "fibrous or filamentary materials" used in the manufacture of body armour, see 1C010.
N.B.2.: For body armour manufactured to military standards or specifications, see entry ML13.d.
Note 1: 1A005 does not apply to body armour or protective garments, when accompanying their user for the user's own personal protection.
Note 2: 1A005 does not apply to body armour designed to provide frontal protection only from both fragment and blast from non‑military explosive devices.
Note 3: 1A005 does not apply to body armour designed to provide protection only from knife, spike, needle or blunt trauma.
1. A. 006. Equipment, specially designed or modified for the disposal of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), as follows, and specially designed components and accessories therefor:
a. Remotely operated vehicles;
b. 'Disruptors'.
Technical Note:
For the purposes of 1A006.b., 'disruptors' are devices specially designed for the purpose of preventing the operation of an explosive device by projecting a liquid, solid or frangible projectile.
N.B.: For equipment specially designed for military use for the disposal of IEDs, see also ML4.
Note: 1A006 does not apply to equipment when accompanying its operator.
1. A. 007. Equipment and devices, specially designed to initiate charges and devices containing "energetic materials", by electrical means, as follows:
N.B.: SEE ALSO MUNITIONS LIST, 3A229 AND 3A232.
a. Explosive detonator firing sets designed to drive explosive detonators specified by 1A007.b.;
b. Electrically driven explosive detonators as follows:
1. Exploding bridge (EB);
2. Exploding bridge wire (EBW);
1. A. 007. b. 3. Slapper;
             4. Exploding foil initiators (EFI).
           Technical Notes:
              1. The word initiator or igniter is sometimes used in place of the word detonator.
