Harmonized System Code Classification

85
Electrical Machinery and Equipment

This category includes a wide range of electrical equipment and machinery used for power generation, transmission, conversion, and control. It covers devices that rely on electricity for their operation or are involved in the production, transmission, or utilization of electrical energy.

8501
Electric motors and generators (excluding sets)

This subcategory specifically refers to electric motors and generators, excluding complete sets or units that include additional components such as engines or prime movers. These are standalone devices designed for converting electrical energy into mechanical energy or vice versa.

8501.20
General-purpose alternating-current or direct-current motors, output power exceeding 37.5 W: Other

This classification applies to general-purpose electric motors that operate on either alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) and have an output power greater than 37.5 watts. This category includes motors that do not fall under more specific classifications within the 8501 series.

8501.20.40.00
General-purpose alternating-current or direct-current motors, output power exceeding 37.5 W, power exceeding 74.6 W but not exceeding 735 W

This classification is for general-purpose AC or DC motors with an output power greater than 37.5 W, but specifically those with a power rating greater than 74.6 W and not exceeding 735 W. These motors are commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential applications where moderate power is required.

Examples of products that may fall under this classification include:

• Industrial electric motors used in machinery and equipment.
• HVAC motors for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.
• Conveyor belt motors used in manufacturing and logistics.
• Pump motors for water or fluid movement in various applications.
• Fans and blowers with motor power within the specified range.
• Electric tools such as drills or saws with appropriate motor ratings.
