Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If output 75-375 kVA range
Lower output AC generators fall into 8501.62, but this unit exceeds that threshold significantly.
If bundled with gas turbine
Generators integral to gas turbine sets are classified with the prime mover under 8411, not separately.
If rotor assembly only
Exported rotors or stators without complete enclosure are parts under 8503.00.

Our AI classifier can analyze your specific product and recommend the correct HTS code with confidence.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Include test certificates showing output >750 kVA; customs may request proof to avoid down-classification
• Ensure AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) specs are documented; integral to classification as complete generator
• Avoid common error of declaring as 'generator parts' if fully assembled with housing and terminals
