LED Upgrades – Fixture Retrofit or Replacement?
One of my favorite topics to talk or write about is LED lighting and
lighting accessories. I’m a big fan of those little light-emitting
diodes. Even in the early days, when prices were high and options pretty
much non-existent, the technology intrigued me.

Mind the Gap: Air-Sealing Options for Exterior Wall Outlets
Residential energy use today accounts for about 20% of U.S. greenhouse
gas emissions – though this figure varies widely by region and income
level. Certainly, getting more of our energy from renewable resources
can help reduce those emissions, but we also need to limit overall
energy demand in order to meet the emissions cuts necessary to blunt
climate change’s worst effects.

Save Money, Energy, and Maintenance Time with LED Luminaires
I was talking to my brother, Mark, on the phone last night. We’d been
trying to connect all week and finally got the chance. I’m in Arkansas

We just missed each other the day before because he was over with the neighbors across the street.

Less Work to Meet Safety Requirements
Some facilities are changing their requirements for motor and appliance
installations. This could be due to OSHA Lock-out and Tag-out
requirements or NFPA 70E. The change is toward using pin and sleeve
devices instead of having a hard-wired installation.
Safety requirements often have the maintenance person checking for the
absence of voltage before touching. The rules are quite specific and are
enforced by OSHA.

The Top Factors to Consider When Working on a Data Center
The dependence on quality, reliable data is now more business-critical than ever. Businesses rely on data centers for 24/7 connectivity; to uphold federal codes and regulations; and to ensure resiliency, performance, and more—all so the business can stick to meeting the demands of their own customers. Data centers should also be highly adaptable.
