Use this as a comparison hint, then confirm the final decision with legal notes and country-specific rules.
HS-4 · Heading
8410 — Turbines; hydraulic water wheels and regulators therefor
Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 8410 when importing or exporting hydraulic turbines, such as a water wheel designed for a hydroelectric power plant. This heading covers complete turbines and water wheels, as well as their parts and regulators.
When deciding between the HS-6 lines, consider the power output of the turbine. For example, if your hydraulic turbine has a power output of 800 kW, you would classify it under 841011. If it exceeds 1,000 kW but is below 10,000 kW, use 841012.
If your turbine's power exceeds 10,000 kW, it falls under 841013. For parts of hydraulic turbines or water wheels, including regulators, use 841090. This distinction is crucial for compliance and accurate duty calculations.
