8501.20.60.00 - Other

This category, HTS Code 8501.20.60.00, specifically covers "Other" universal AC/DC motors with an output exceeding 37.5 W. It serves as a residual category for universal AC/DC motors that fall within this power range but do not fit into the more precisely defined wattage brackets of its sibling categories. These motors are characterized by their ability to operate on both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) power supplies and are integral components in a wide array of electrical appliances and equipment requiring variable speed or torque control.

The distinction between this category and its siblings lies solely in the specified output power. HTS Code 8501.20.20.00 covers motors from 37.5 W up to and including 74.6 W. HTS Code 8501.20.40.00 applies to motors with an output exceeding 74.6 W but not exceeding 735 W. HTS Code 8501.20.50.00 is for motors exceeding 735 W but under 746 W. Therefore, the classification of a universal AC/DC motor within these subheadings hinges on a precise measurement of its continuous rated output power.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification for universal AC/DC motors with an output exceeding 37.5 W is finalized at this level based on the defined wattage ranges. Importers and exporters should carefully consult the technical specifications and output ratings of their universal AC/DC motors to ensure accurate classification within the correct sibling category.
