8504.23.00.80 - Having a power handling capacity exceeding 100,000 kVA

This HTS classification, 8504.23.00.80, specifically identifies liquid dielectric transformers that possess a significant power handling capacity, defined as exceeding 100,000 kVA. These are high-voltage, high-capacity transformers crucial for the transmission and distribution of electricity on a large scale, typically found in power generation facilities, major substations, and industrial complexes. The "liquid dielectric" aspect signifies that the transformer's core and windings are immersed in an insulating liquid, usually mineral oil, to facilitate cooling and electrical insulation.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by its upper threshold of power handling capacity. While 8504.23.00.41 covers transformers up to 59,999 kVA and 8504.23.00.45 covers those between 60,000 kVA and 100,000 kVA, this classification exclusively applies to those that surpass the 100,000 kVA mark. This precise delineation is critical for accurate tariff assessment, reflecting the scale and application of the equipment.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 8504.23.00.80. Classification at this level is determined solely by the transformer's liquid dielectric nature and its power handling capacity exceeding 100,000 kVA. Therefore, any liquid dielectric transformer meeting this specific power rating falls under this code, irrespective of other technical specifications not explicitly mentioned in the HTS nomenclature at this subdivision.
