ABB TX Panorama 1000 kVA Oil-Immersed Distribution Transformer from China
This liquid dielectric transformer uses mineral oil insulation and has a power handling capacity of 1000 kVA, ideal for utility substations and industrial power distribution. It falls under HTS 8504.22.0040 because it exceeds 650 kVA but does not exceed 2,500 kVA, with liquid dielectric cooling for high-efficiency voltage transformation.

Import Tips
• Verify DOE 2016 efficiency standards compliance via test reports; non-compliant units face rejection
• Include detailed nameplate data (kVA rating, voltage, oil type) and dielectric fluid safety certifications
• Avoid misclassification as dry-type; liquid dielectric presence requires 8504 classification
