Import Tips
• Ensure the product is clearly marked as a surge suppressor for voltages exceeding 1,000 volts on the commercial invoice to support classification under 8535.40.00
• Verify that the polymer housing and metal oxide resistors meet Canadian electrical safety standards (CSA) before importation
• Keep technical datasheets available in case CBSA requests evidence of the voltage rating
