Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the device is marketed as a circuit protector rather than a fuse
Other apparatus for protecting electrical circuits, such as circuit breakers, may fall under 8536.30.
If the PTC element is a semiconductor-based transducer
Semiconductor devices, including sensors and actuators, are classified under heading 85.41, but PTC fuses are typically not.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm that the PTC fuse is classified as a fuse under 8536.10.00, not as a semiconductor device under 85.41, since it operates based on thermal properties rather than semiconductor effects
• Have technical specifications available to show CBSA that it is a resettable fuse for overcurrent protection
• If the fuse is part of a battery pack, the pack's classification may be under 8507, so ensure proper declaration
