1) Customs Tariff Code (HS Code) of Converters

Converters (rectifiers, inverters, and similar equipment) are generally classified under Chapter 85, group 8504. The final 8/10-digit code is determined based on type (AC/DC, DC/AC, frequency converter), capacity, working voltage/frequency, integration with other circuits, and compliance with technical/safety standards.

2) Applications of Converters in Different Industries

Power Industry: Used to change electrical voltage and current to match grid needs. They can convert AC to DC and regulate voltage for special applications.
Telecommunications: Applied to convert signal frequencies, essential for data and telecom transmission.
Automotive: In electric and hybrid cars, converters transform battery power into suitable voltages for motors and electronic systems.
Aerospace & Marine: Used for energy management and transformation in complex systems, requiring high accuracy and quality.
