Import Tips
• Include detailed technical datasheets showing voltage >1,000V and interrupting capacity for smooth clearance
• Labeling must specify 'For voltages exceeding 1,000V' to prevent reclassification to low-voltage subheadings
• Watch for preferential tariff treatments under USMCA—certify origin if manufactured in qualifying countries
