UNIFORM APPLICATION OF THE COMBINED NOMENCLATURE (CN)

(Classification of goods)

(2005/C 129/06)

Explanatory notes adopted in accordance with the procedure defined in Article 10(1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff( 1 ), as last amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 493/2005( 2 )

The ‘explanatory notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Communities’( 3 ) shall be amended as follows:

| | On page 318 the following texts are to be inserted:
‘8514
Industrial or laboratory electric furnaces and ovens (including those functioning by induction or dielectric loss); other industrial or laboratory equipment for the heat treatment of materials by induction or dielectric loss 8514 20 80
Dielectric furnaces and ovens
Microwave ovens of a type designed to be used in restaurants, canteens, etc., differ from domestic appliances of heading 8516 in their power output and oven capacity. Such ovens having a power output of more than 1 000 W or an oven capacity of more than 34 litres are considered to be for industrial use. For microwave ovens combined in a single housing with a grill or another type of oven, the aforementioned power output applies only to the microwave. The classification of such a combination is not influenced by the oven capacity criterion.
Microwave ovens having a power output of not more than 1 000 W and an oven capacity of not more than 34 litres are considered to be for domestic use (heading 8516).’ | ‘8514 | Industrial or laboratory electric furnaces and ovens (including those functioning by induction or dielectric loss); other industrial or laboratory equipment for the heat treatment of materials by induction or dielectric loss | 8514 20 80 | Dielectric furnaces and ovens
