Import Tips
• Verify eco-friendly oil composition meets EPA standards and declare exact dielectric fluid type on commercial invoice
• Provide factory acceptance test (FAT) protocols confirming power handling within 2,500-10,000 kVA threshold
• Coordinate with customs for oversized load permits; typical dimensions exceed 5m length requiring special handling
