8532.25.00.20 - 300 V or greater, but less than 600 V

This HTS classification covers fixed capacitors with a dielectric of paper or plastics that are specifically designed for alternating current (AC) service and have a voltage rating of 300 volts or greater, but less than 600 volts. These components are integral to the functioning of various electrical and electronic devices where voltage regulation, filtering, or energy storage in AC circuits is required. The materials used for the dielectric, such as paper or various types of plastic films, are key identifying characteristics.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. It differs from HTS 8532.25.00.10, which applies to AC service capacitors with voltage ratings *less than* 300 volts. Conversely, this category is distinct from HTS 8532.25.00.30 and 8532.25.00.40, which cover AC service capacitors with higher voltage ratings of 600 volts or greater. The precise voltage rating is the primary determinant for differentiating these closely related classifications.

As a leaf node within the HTS database, this specific classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus remains on the exact specifications of the capacitor itself, primarily its dielectric material (paper or plastic), its intended use in AC circuits, and its voltage rating falling within the defined range of 300 V to less than 600 V, to ensure correct import and export procedures.
