8544.42.90.90 - Other

This category, HTS 8544.42.90.90, encompasses insulated electrical conductors fitted with connectors, designed for voltages not exceeding 1,000 volts, which do not fall under more specific classifications. It covers a broad range of wired assemblies where the primary function is the transmission of electrical power or signals and where connectors are integral to the product's use. Examples include, but are not limited to, various types of adapter cables, specialized wiring harnesses not otherwise specified, and pre-assembled electrical cords with unique connector configurations.

This classification serves as a residual category for insulated conductors with connectors falling within the 1,000V limit. It is distinguished from its sibling category, 8544.42.90.10, which specifically covers extension cords as defined by statistical note 6 to this chapter. Therefore, any insulated electrical conductor fitted with connectors that is not an extension cord, but meets the voltage and construction criteria, would likely be classified under this "Other" designation.

As this is a terminal node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this heading relies on the exclusion of goods that fit into more precise descriptions at higher levels of the tariff schedule, as well as specific exclusions like those for extension cords. The determining factors for classification here are the presence of insulation, the inclusion of connectors, the voltage rating, and the absence of a more specific tariff provision.
