Import Tips
• Obtain IEC 60947-3 certification and ensure voltage rating documentation exceeds 1,000V to avoid reclassification
• Include test reports for load-break capacity and IP rating; common pitfall is missing high-voltage labeling
• Verify RoHS compliance for EU markets and provide CAD drawings for customs valuation
