Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS classification covers DC motors with an electrical output exceeding 75 kilowatts (kW) but less than 149.2 kW. These are motors that convert direct electrical energy into mechanical rotational energy, designed for applications requiring significant power output within this specific range. They are distinct from generators which produce electrical energy.

This category differentiates itself from sibling entry 8501.33.20.40, which is exclusively for DC motors of similar power output intended for use in civil aircraft. Therefore, motors classified here are for a broader range of industrial, commercial, or other non-aviation specific applications. The primary distinguishing factor is the intended end-use sector.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this code is determined by the motor's DC electrical nature, its output rating between 75 kW and 149.2 kW, and its exclusion from the specific use category designated for civil aircraft.
