Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 854720 when importing or exporting insulating fittings made of plastics for electrical machines. For example, this code applies to plastic connectors used in wiring harnesses for appliances.
This code specifically covers insulating fittings that are made solely from insulating materials, excluding minor assembly parts. If you're dealing with plastic fittings that are part of larger electrical assemblies, you might need to look at other codes.
In contrast, HS-6 854721 covers similar fittings but specifically for electrical machines that include insulators. If your product contains any insulator components, you should consider that code instead.
Understanding the distinction between these codes is crucial for compliance. If you are unsure whether your product qualifies under HS-6 854720, check if it is purely an insulating fitting without additional functions.
