Import Tips
• Document the material composition (magnesium silicate) and thermal properties to support the classification
• If the bushings are imported with metal conductors, confirm whether they are complete bushings or parts of switchgear
• Ensure the product is not classified as a part of electrical apparatus under heading 85.36
