Import Tips
• Ensure compliance with IEEE C57.12.00 standards; provide short-circuit test data during customs clearance
• Declare exact oil volume and type (PCB-free) to meet EPA import regulations for dielectric fluids
• Avoid common pitfalls by specifying if it's pole-mounted or pad-mounted in entry documentation
