Microwave High Voltage Transformer
Specialized step-up transformer that converts 120V household current to the 2000-4000V needed for magnetron operation in microwaves. Classified in HTS 8516.90.50.00 due to its dedicated design for microwave ovens of subheading 8516.50.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported without microwave-specific mounting or wiring
Standard high voltage transformers classify under power transformers rather than appliance-specific parts.
If parts of other electrothermic appliances
HV transformers for medical or industrial heating equipment fall outside microwave-specific subheading.
If when imported as insulated power supply assemblies
Complete HV capacitor/transformer modules may classify under insulated electrical conductors.
