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
