HS v2017 Code: 903032

About multimeters; for measuring or checking voltage, current, resistance or power, with a recording device

hs code 903032 covers multimeters, a critical tool used across a wide range of industries to measure and monitor electrical parameters. These devices play a vital role in ensuring the proper functioning, maintenance, and troubleshooting of electrical systems, making them an essential component of the broader electrical and electronics sector. As a key input for a variety of downstream industries, the multimeter market is closely tied to the overall health and growth of the global economy.

Production process

Multimeters are typically manufactured through a combination of automated and manual assembly processes. The core components, such as the display, circuit board, and input/output terminals, are produced using specialized electronic manufacturing techniques. These components are then carefully assembled, calibrated, and tested to ensure accurate and reliable performance. Quality control measures are implemented throughout the production process to maintain high standards and meet industry regulations.

Production inputs

The production of multimeters relies on a range of inputs, including electronic components (e.g., microprocessors, resistors, capacitors), display technologies (e.g., LCD, LED), enclosure materials (e.g., plastic, metal), and specialized test equipment for calibration and verification. Additionally, the manufacturing process requires skilled labor, advanced production machinery, and a robust supply chain to source the necessary raw materials and components.

Production outputs

Multimeters produced under hs code 903032 are primarily consumed by a diverse range of industries, including 851 Electronics, 841 Machinery, 854 Electrical equipment, and 871 Precision instruments. These industries utilize multimeters for a variety of applications, such as electrical system maintenance, product testing, and quality control. The output of this industry also serves as an input for other 903 Measuring and checking instruments classified under different hs codes.
