9405.19.60.10 - Household

This HTS subcategory, 9405.19.60.10, specifically classifies household chandeliers and other electric ceiling or wall lighting fittings that are primarily constructed from base metal and are not otherwise specified. The "Household" designation indicates that these luminaires are intended for domestic use, distinguishing them from industrial, commercial, or public space lighting. The key defining characteristic for this classification is the predominant use of base metal in their construction, encompassing materials such as iron, steel, aluminum, copper, and their alloys.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 9405.19.60.20 ("Other"), which would capture household ceiling or wall lighting fittings made of materials other than base metal, such as plastic, glass, or wood. It is also a specific subdivision within the broader category of "Other" base metal lighting fittings, indicating a focus on decorative and functional luminaires for residential interiors rather than more specialized applications.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on the material composition (predominantly base metal), the intended use (household), and the form factor (ceiling or wall-mounted electric lighting fittings, excluding those for public thoroughfares). Examples falling under this code include metal pendant lights, sconces, and flush-mount fixtures designed for use in homes.
