What this code covers
Use this division for repair, maintenance and installation of machinery and equipment when the main activity includes This division only includes specialised repair and maintenance activities. A substantial amount of repair is also done by manufacturers of machinery, equipment and other goods. In such cases, the units engaged in these repair and manufacturing activities are classified according to the value-added principle, which would often assign these combined activities to the manufacture of the good. The same principle is applied for combined trade and repair. and The rebuilding or remanufacture of machinery and equipment is considered a manufacturing activity and is included in other divisions of this section.. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
