Import Tips
• Provide manufacturer test certificates proving >1,000V rating and isolating capability per ANSI/IEEE standards
• Label clearly as 'isolating switch' not 'circuit breaker' to prevent CBP misclassification
• Watch for auxiliary contacts; document as integral parts to maintain 8535 classification
