LED drivers (the power-supply module that converts 110/230 V AC mains into the constant-current DC that LEDs require) are classified under 8504.40.95 as other static converters. Constant-voltage drivers (typically 12 V or 24 V DC output for LED strips) are also 8504.40. Drivers integrated into an LED luminaire are not separately classified — the complete fitting is 9405. Standalone RGB / RGBW LED controllers that change colour or dim strips are borderline: pure dimmer/controller units without power conversion may be 8537.10 (apparatus for electrical control), but controllers that also incorporate the driver function remain 8504.40. Smart LED controllers (WiFi/Zigbee/Bluetooth) follow the same rule — the wireless control is ancillary to the power-conversion function. DALI LED drivers for professional lighting are 8504.40. LED strip controllers sold as standalone amplifiers/signal boosters are 8543.70. A Meanwell or similar branded LED power supply is 8504.40.
