8504.40.95.10 - With a power output not exceeding 50 W

This HTS classification covers static converters specifically designed as power supplies with a power output not exceeding 50 Watts. These devices are essential components in a wide array of electronic equipment, functioning to convert electrical power from one form to another to meet the specific voltage and current requirements of the end device. Examples include compact power adapters for small electronic gadgets, internal power modules for low-power computing peripherals, and specialized power supplies for laboratory instruments operating within this wattage limit.

The key distinguishing factor for this category lies in its power output rating. It is differentiated from its sibling categories by its upper wattage limit of 50 W. Categories 8504.40.95.20, 8504.40.95.30, and 8504.40.95.40 cover static power supplies with higher power outputs, exceeding 50 W up to 150 W, exceeding 150 W up to 500 W, and all other power supplies respectively. Therefore, accurate determination of the maximum power output is crucial for correct classification.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. The classification is complete at this level, based on the type of apparatus (static converter, specifically a power supply) and its power output capacity. When classifying, ensure that the device's primary function is power supply and verify its stated or measured power output against the 50 W threshold to ensure adherence to this specific HTS code.
