ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) A product comprising: — a high pressure mercury vapour discharge lamp with a non-sealed beam reflector, — cabling, — ventilation slots, — an installation frame with a holder, and — a socket. The product is designed to be used in projectors. 8539 32 10 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 2(a) to Section XVI and by the wording of CN codes 8539 , 8539 32 and 8539 32 10 . As the product is considered to be a part of a projector, Note 2 to Section XVI applies. By virtue of Note 2(a) to Section XVI, parts which are goods included in any of the headings of Chapter 84 or 85 are to be classified in their respective headings. Given its characteristics, the product meets the terms of heading 8539 . Consequently, classification under heading 8529 is excluded. The product is therefore to be classified under CN code 8539 32 10 as a mercury vapour discharge lamp.
