About electrical transformers; n.e.c. in item no. 8504.2, having a power handling capacity not exceeding 1kva

hs code 850431 covers a crucial component in the electrical and electronics industry - electrical transformers with a power handling capacity not exceeding 1kVA. These transformers play a vital role in power distribution, voltage conversion, and signal transmission across a wide range of applications, from consumer electronics to industrial machinery. As a key enabler of modern electrical infrastructure, the 850431 industry is integral to the broader economy and technological advancement.

Production process

The production of electrical transformers under hs code 850431 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the core components, including the magnetic core and windings, are manufactured. The magnetic core is often made from high-permeability materials, such as silicon steel or amorphous metals, which are cut and stacked to form the desired shape. The windings, consisting of copper or aluminum wire, are then wound around the core. Finally, the transformer is assembled, encased, and tested to ensure compliance with safety and performance standards.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of hs code 850431 electrical transformers include raw materials such as magnetic core materials, copper or aluminum wire, insulating materials, and various electronic components. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as winding machines, core cutting tools, and testing equipment, are essential for the manufacturing process. Skilled labor, including electrical engineers and technicians, is also a critical input for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of the hs code 850431 industry is electrical transformers with a power handling capacity not exceeding 1kVA. These transformers are used in a wide range of applications, including 850440 Electrical transformers; having a power handling capacity exceeding 1 kVA but not exceeding 16 kVA, 850450 Electrical transformers; having a power handling capacity exceeding 16 kVA, and 853650 Electrical switches, for a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V.
