Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8511.50.00Higher: 52.5% vs 38.1%

If imported as complete voltage regulator assembly with housing

Complete regulators with cut-out relays are classified under 8511.50, while separate parts fall under 8511.90.

8537.10.91Higher: 52.7% vs 38.1%

If for non-automotive applications like industrial machinery

Boards or modules for general voltage control not specific to IC engines go to Chapter 85 general regulators.

8708.99.81Lower: 37.5% vs 38.1%

If when sold as part of a complete motor vehicle electrical system

Vehicle parts of a kind used in motor vehicles may shift to Chapter 87 if not purely engine ignition/starting equipment.
