Import Tips

Verify generator output certification from manufacturer to confirm 75-375 kW range; ensure photovoltaic-specific design documentation for customs classification

Common pitfall: misclassifying as AC motors if inverter-equipped

Obtain solar component origin certificates for preferential duty rates
