Summary

Yugoslavia was one of the first countries to accede to ATP agreement in 1975. The Republic of Serbia confirmed the Agreement on 5 December 2011 and was the first in the region to implement it in practice. Implementation of the Agreement could not be carried out without the birth pangs, for many reasons – old equipment, absence of road checks, counterfeit certificates and more. However, the number of equipment registered or built in Serbia and complying with the Agreement is getting bigger every day. This paper presents the experiences of Serbia's only ATP testing station obtained through testing of the equipment in use. Furthermore, 117 collected times needed for special equipment to reach the temperature declared by their class are analysed and compared between the boxes of different ages, taking into account the capacity of the refrigeration unit.
