Import Tips
• Provide frequency response and hum reduction specifications to distinguish from general-purpose transformers
• Ensure nameplate clearly states 1 kVA capacity; customs audits focus on power rating accuracy
• Avoid packaging with audio cables that could trigger 'set' classification under different rules
