Import Tips
• Certify compliance with DOE efficiency standards (TP1 or TP2) via NEMA TP1 test reports for customs clearance
• Label transformer with exact kVA, voltage, and dielectric type; discrepancies lead to delays or penalties
• Obtain FCC certification if equipped with monitoring electronics to cover electromagnetic compatibility
