Our businesses

We help customers meet the demands of the world’s ever-growing need for power through improving efficiency and uptime, meeting regulatory requirements and protecting people and equipment. Our electrical products help utilities generate, transmit and distribute power. And once that power is distributed, we help people use it efficiently and safely, whether in a building, industrial facility, data center or home. Our solutions range from circuit breakers to switchgear to machine controls. We offer a full portfolio of backup power and surge protection, providing maximum uptime and guarding against power surges or outages. In hazardous environments we help protect people and property with explosion-proof enclosures, signaling, notification and surveillance systems. Our comprehensive portfolio of end-to-end electrical solutions is complemented by our full-scale engineering and support services.

Our customers span a wide range of markets, including residential, commercial and institutional buildings, industrial facilities, utilities, data centers, oil and gas, mining and machine original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
