ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN-code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) An article (so-called ‘connector enclosure’) in the shape of a rectangular hollow box, made of plastics, measuring approximately 60 × 190 × 170 mm. The article is designed to be used as an enslosure with electronic control modules in different kinds of vehicles or machines to physically protect electronic contacts against dirt and damp. See image  ( *1 ) . 3926 90 97 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 3926, 3926 90 and 3926 90 97. Classification under heading 8536 as “electrical apparatus for switching or protecting electrical circuits, or for making connections to or in electrical circuits” is excluded, as the article in question is just an enclosure and does not comprise connectors, contacts or provisions thereof (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 8536, part (III), (C)). The article is not considered to be a part of a machine within the meaning of Note 2(b) to Section XVI as its presence is not necessary for the connector, contact or provision thereof to function but only improves its functionality. Classification under heading 8538 as a part suitable for use solely or principally with the apparatus of heading 8536 is therefore excluded. The product is not considered to be an insulating fitting for electrical appliances of heading 8547 as it is not specifically designed for insulating purposes but for protecting the electrical connections (see also the HSEN to heading 8547, part (A)). Consequently, the article is to be classified according to its constituent material (plastics) under CN code 3926 90 97 as other articles of plastics. ( *1 )   The image is purely for information.
