Import Tips
• Efficiency class documentation (e.g
• NEMA standards) supports high-efficiency claims during customs review
• Hinge mechanism details must show temporary assembly only—no permanent fixtures for parts status
• Mark packages with 'For 50/60Hz transformer incorporation only' to prevent misuse classification
