Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Provide engine model certification showing compression-ignition application to distinguish from spark-ignition parts

β€’ Include relay electrical ratings (amperage, voltage) in documentation to confirm function as starting equipment part

β€’ Avoid common error of classifying as general electrical relays under 8536; specify engine starting use
