SMA Sunny Tripower 6.0 Core1 Photovoltaic Inverter
This is a three-phase string inverter for photovoltaic systems with a rated output of 6 kW AC, converting DC power from solar panels to grid-compliant AC power. It falls under HTS 8501.80.10.00 as a photovoltaic AC generator of output not exceeding 75 kVA, specifically designed for residential and small commercial solar installations.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as a complete solar power generating set with photovoltaic panels
Complete generating sets including both PV panels and inverter fall under 8504, not standalone AC generators of 8501.
If classified primarily as a control unit for automated data processing systems
Inverters with advanced MPPT controllers resembling ADP system controllers may shift to Chapter 84 per end-use.
If output exceeds 75 kVA when fully rated
Photovoltaic generating sets over 75 kVA but not exceeding 750 kVA move to the next output-based subheading.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify output rating documentation does not exceed 75 kVA to avoid reclassification to higher subheadings
• Include UL 1741 and IEEE 1547 certification proofs for grid-tie compliance, as required by U.S. customs and utilities
