Import Tips
• Specify 'rheostat' explicitly with current rating to prevent confusion with heating elements (8516)
• Include heat dissipation test data; common issue is reclassification if wattage suggests heating function
• For bulk imports, use commercial invoices with HTS breakdown to streamline entry
