Import Tips
• Classify the trolley pole as a mechanical part for power collection, not as an electrical component, to avoid Chapter 85
• The CBSA may require evidence that the pole is not a general fiberglass article, which would fall under Chapter 39
• Ensure the pole is identified as solely for tramway use to support the classification
