Import Tips

Verify exact output power with manufacturer specs to confirm 8501.51.20 classification; include NEMA frame size and efficiency certification in documentation

Common pitfall: misclassifying as single-phase (8501.40) without phase confirmation

Obtain motor test reports to avoid CBP reclassification
