What this heading covers
Electrical ignition or starting equipment of a kind used for spark-ignition or compression-ignition internal combustion engines (for example, ignition magnetos, magneto-dynamos, ignition coils, sparking plugs and glow plugs, starter motors); generators (for example, dynamos, alternators) and cut-outs of a kind used in conjunction with such engines — this is the standard HS heading text for chapter 85. Products are classified here at the 4-digit level; the 6-digit subheadings below split it further. Duty rates and import rules are set by each destination country on top of this shared structure.
