form containing a glass cover, where the panels have the following
characteristics:
(A)
a total power output of 100 watts or less per panel;
(B)
a maximum surface area of 8,000 cm2 per panel;
(C)
do not include a built-in inverter;

27.1 watt or less solar panels, each with surface area less than 3,000 cm2
and coated across the entire surface with a polyurethane doming resin,
the foregoing joined to a battery charging and maintaining unit, such unit
which is an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene ("ABS") box that
incorporates a light emitting diode ("LED") by coated wires that include
a connector to permit the incorporation of an extension cable.
Any goods covered by this note may also be excluded from the application of relief
if they are covered by a determination by the United States Trade Representative
("USTR") published in the Federal Register that such goods should be exempt from
the application of any rate of duty or tariff-rate quota otherwise imposed on goods
described in the provisions of this note. Such a determination by the USTR under
this subdivision may exempt specific additional CSPV cells or modules when
entered from all countries or when entered from enumerated countries only, or may
modify the product descriptions in subdivision (c) of this note. The USTR is
authorized to modify or terminate any such determination during the effective period
of the subheadings specified in the first sentence of subdivision (a) of this note and to
specify, subsequent to the effective date specified in this note, that such CSPV cells
and modules will be considered "goods excluded from the application of relief' upon
publication by the USTR of a notice in the Federal Register. Such "goods excluded
from the application of relief' shall not be counted toward any tariff-rate quota
quantities specified for any quota period.

(i)
Any importer entering CSPV cells under subheading 9903.45.21 shall report
the electricity power output attributable to such cells to the satisfaction of U.S.
Customs and Border Protection ("Customs") and shall provide such
information as Customs may require in order to permit the administration of
this subheading. Such an entry shall constitute a certification by that importer
of the power output attributable to the CSPV cells described therein. Importers
are likewise directed to report the electricity power output attributable to CSPV
cells entered under subheading 9903.45.22 to the extent that and in such form
as Customs may require.
For purposes of subheading 9903.45.22 to this subchapter, the duty rate in the Rates

For purposes of subheading 9903.45.25 to this subchapter, the term "modules" shall
include the following goods provided for in subheading 8541.40.60 of the tariff
schedule: a module is a joined group ofCSPV cells, as such cells are defined in
subdivision (c) of this note, regardless of the number of cells or the shape of the
joined group, that are capable of generating electricity. Also included as a "module"
are goods each known as a "panel" comprising a CSPV cell that has undergone any
processing, assembly, or interconnection (including, but not limited to, assembly into
a laminate). Such CSPV cells assembled into modules or made up into panels
include goods of a type reported for statistical purposes under statistical reporting
number 8541.40.6020. Such goods also include (i) CSPV cells which are presented
attached to inverters or batteries of subheading 8501.61.00 or 8507.20.80,
respectively; and (ii) CSPV cells classifiable as DC generators of subheading
