8536.69.80.00 - Other

HTS Code 8536.69.80.00 encompasses "Other" lamp-holders, plugs, and sockets that do not fit into the more specifically defined categories within 8536.69. This broad classification typically includes a wide array of electrical connectors and holding devices for lamps and other electrical components, distinguished by their physical form, intended application, or material composition when they do not align with more granular classifications.

This category serves as a residual grouping. It is distinct from sibling categories such as 8536.69.40, which specifically enumerates coaxial connectors, cylindrical multicontact connectors, rack and panel connectors, printed circuit connectors, and ribbon or flat cable connectors. Therefore, if a lamp-holder, plug, or socket does not possess the specific characteristics or fall within the functional designs outlined in the sibling category, it will generally be classified under 8536.69.80.00.

As a leaf node, 8536.69.80.00 does not have further subcategories. Classification within this code relies on a thorough examination of the item's specifications and its primary use to ensure it is not more appropriately classified elsewhere within the broader headings of Chapter 85 or specifically within other subheadings of 8536.69. Items classified here often represent specialized or less common designs of electrical connectors for lighting or other general electrical circuits.
