Import Tips
• Verify copper purity and insulation type (e.g
• enamel, PVC) meets ASTM standards to avoid reclassification
• Include test reports confirming voltage rating under 1,000V and conductor material composition
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as bare wire (7413) without insulation documentation
