Open ↗ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) A static converter in a plastic housing (a so-called ‘AC/DC adapter’) designed to convert alternating current (AC) (100-240 V) into direct current (DC) (12 V, 1,5 A). The housing is equipped with a plug to connect to the AC and with an electrical cable of 1,5 m fitted with a DC-connector which enables the AC/DC adapter to be connected to different apparatus. The AC/DC adapter is presented to supply power to a set-top box (STB). It can also be used for supplying power to a variety of other apparatus, for example, telecommunication apparatus, automatic data-processing machines, audio/video recording or reproducing apparatus, household appliances and radio navigational aid apparatus. See image ( *1 ) . 8504 40 82 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8504 , 8504 40 and 8504 40 82 . Classification under CN code 8504 40 30 as static converters of a kind used with telecommunication apparatus, automatic data- processing machines and units thereof is excluded as the AC/DC adapter is designed to provide current to a variety of electrical apparatus. The AC/DC adapter is therefore to be classified under CN code 8504 40 82 as a rectifier. ( *1 ) The image is purely for information.
