SITCSection 8
U.S. imports of electrical measuring instruments for voltage, current, resistance & power (non-recording, nes) (SITC 87475) totaled $59.3M in April 2026, traded with 69 countries.
Importers of Electrical Measuring Instruments for Voltage, Current, Resistance & Power (Non-Recording, NES) paid $5.5M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 12% on $45.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataHandheld and bench-top instruments for measuring voltage, current, resistance, and power — multimeters, clamp meters, ohmmeters, and wattmeters — fall under this residual heading when they lack a built-in recording device and are not more specifically classified elsewhere. These tools are foundational to electrical installation, maintenance, and quality-control workflows across construction, utilities, and electronics manufacturing. Many product lines in this category originate from East Asian manufacturing hubs and may be subject to Section 301 tariff measures, making supplier-origin documentation a routine compliance consideration for importers.

SITC 87475 is specifically limited to instruments measuring or checking voltage, current, resistance, or power that do not incorporate a recording device. SITC 87478 is the broader catch-all for electrical quantity measuring instruments not elsewhere specified, which can include recording capability or measure quantities beyond the four listed in 87475.
Many electrical measuring instruments sourced from China are subject to Section 301 tariff measures. Importers should verify the applicable HTS 10-digit classification and the corresponding Section 301 list status, as the tariff treatment can vary by specific product type even within the same SITC heading.
