EU Low-Voltage Electrical Relay Imports — 2026 Data

Extra-EU imports of the selected electrical relay classifications increased from EUR 526.2 million to EUR 564.8 million in H1 2026, up 7.34%. Net mass increased faster, by 11.85%.

China remained the largest statistical supplier, increasing its official-value share from 38.93% to 43.26%. All three CN8 segments grew in value; relays <=60 V and <=2 A grew fastest at 26.40%.

A larger Chinese share and higher concentration

China increased 19.28% in import value. Top 3 concentration rose from 57.69% to 60.02%; Top 5 rose from 69.36% to 70.18%.

India, Thailand, Mexico, Malaysia and Tunisia increased in value, while the United States, United Kingdom and Indonesia declined. The data describe movements without establishing their causes.

Three defined electrical relay classifications

Extra-EU imports reported by EU27_2020 under CN8 85364110, 85364190 and 85364900, covering electrical relays for voltages not exceeding 1,000 V, with the <=60 V classes segmented by current. 85364110: relays <=60 V, current <=2 A. 85364190: relays <=60 V, current >2 A. 85364900: relays >60 V and <=1,000 V.

Scope limitation: The scope covers only CN8 85364110, 85364190 and 85364900, not all heading 8536 apparatus or all electrical switching equipment. CN8 does not identify final application or end-use shares. Automotive, industrial automation, power-grid, railway, renewable-energy, EV, semiconductor and other specific end-use relay markets cannot be isolated from this dataset. The dataset is not EU production, EU consumption, EU sales, installed stock, the total EU relay market or the total EU electrical equipment market. Suppliers are countries/statistical jurisdictions, not companies. Low-voltage refers to the CN threshold not exceeding 1,000 V. Net mass is not equipment count or installed capacity. Value per kg is not a market price or price index. Missing observations are not verified zero trade. Residuals remain separate and unallocated. Trade statistics may be revised after extraction. Observed changes do not establish causal explanations or forecasts.

H1 2025 versus H1 2026

Official value rose from EUR 526,165,566 to EUR 564,782,192 (+7.34%). Net mass rose from 10,125,146 kg to 11,324,840 kg (+11.85%). The three segment value changes were +26.40%, +9.26% and +2.18%, respectively.
