Last updated: July 2026 dataSmart and conventional electricity meters — including advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) devices used in utility grid modernization — are consolidated under tariff line 9028300000. Mexico and Vietnam are the leading US import sources, with Canada, India, and Germany also supplying significant volumes; the Vietnam-origin share reflects substantial electronics manufacturing capacity that has grown alongside utility smart-meter rollouts. Importers sourcing from Vietnam and China should assess Section 301 tariff exposure, as this product category has been subject to trade-remedy scrutiny given its electronics content.

Section 301 tariffs apply specifically to goods of Chinese origin. Electricity meters manufactured in Vietnam are generally not subject to Section 301, but importers must ensure that substantial transformation occurred in Vietnam and that the goods are not merely transshipped Chinese-origin products. A licensed customs broker can assist with origin verification and ruling requests.
ANSI C12 standards (published by ANSI and administered through NEMA and utility specifications) govern electricity meter accuracy and communication protocols in the US. Imported meters must typically meet the relevant ANSI C12 accuracy class and, for AMI devices, interoperability requirements set by the purchasing utility. Compliance is verified by the utility or state public utility commission, not at the port of entry.
