Import Tips

Provide welding current specs and DC waveform certification to distinguish from standard motors

Label clearly as 'DC Generator' not 'Welder' to prevent classification under welding machines (8515)

Watch for undervaluation penalties; declare full industrial-rated capacity even if portable
