Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8501.40.60Higher: 53.7% vs 50%

If rewired or used as single-phase

Single-phase AC motors, even if originally multi-phase capable, classify under 8501.40 if operated on single-phase power.

8501.53Lower: 12.8% vs 50%

If output exceeds 75kW

AC motors over 75kW power output shift to higher subheading regardless of phase configuration.

8414.59.30Higher: 52.3% vs 50%

If imported as integral pump motor assembly

Motors permanently built into pumps for industrial use classify as pump parts under Chapter 84 rather than separate motors.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify motor output rating with manufacturer's specs and include test certificates to confirm 750W-75kW range and multi-phase operation

Ensure CE marking or equivalent for electrical safety; provide NEMA frame size and efficiency class documentation

Avoid misclassification by distinguishing from single-phase motors (8501.40) or those over 75kW (8501.53); declare exact power rating
