ABB TX 75 MVA Oil-Immersed Power Transformer from Mexico
This liquid dielectric transformer from ABB has a power handling capacity of 75,000 kVA, used for stepping up voltage in utility substations. It falls under HTS 8504.23.0045 because it exceeds 59,999 kVA but not 100,000 kVA and uses oil as the dielectric medium. Designed for high-voltage transmission networks with robust cooling systems.

Import Tips
• Obtain IEEE/ANSI certification and test reports verifying power rating and dielectric fluid specifications to meet U.S. utility standards
• Ensure DOT compliance for oil-filled transformers including spill containment plans and proper hazardous material labeling
• Avoid misclassification by confirming exact kVA capacity via nameplate data; over 100,000 kVA shifts to 8504.23.0049
