Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the cable is supplied with connectors attached
Fitted with connectors, the product becomes an electrical connector set under Chapter 85.
If the product is a single strand rather than multiple strands twisted together
Single strand wire is classified under heading 74.08, not as stranded wire.
