Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If output exceeds 75 kW but ≤375 kW
Larger traction generators for heavy rail move to higher power subheading 8501.33.
If imported as part of rail rolling stock
Components permanently installed in rail vehicles classify with the vehicle body under 8607.
If universal AC/DC type
Dual AC/DC capability classifies under 8501.40 rather than pure DC generators.
