Last Issue We Asked: Who's 200 amp loadbreak elbows, "recently enhanced with new safety performance features, increased range flexibility and improved lifecycle cost reduction, have earned Rural Utilities Service (RUS) Acceptance."? Correct Answer: Elastimold from T&B Congratulations to OUR WINNER:
This Issue's Question: Who has introduced the Evolution Series 10-inch Poke-Thru Device: "Offers Eight Gangs of Communication, A/V and Power Capacity"? Cable Trays Gaining Over Conduit Peter Walsh, PE Cable trays are becoming increasingly popular for building projects, replacing traditional conduit. Legrand performed a cost analysis between their Cablofil® open cable tray and conduit finding a 50% cost reduction. What are the reasons for this? This cable tray is easily adapted to changes in the layout. Many times the electrical contractor has to deal with the last minute changes of other disciplines, including mechanical, plumbing, fire sprinkler and building systems. The long straight conduit path frequently has to avoid last minute obstacles driving up the electrical cost. Lighting the Way to Safety in Hazardous Locations Chuck Ross Industrial settings can pose a range of hazards for workers. Explosions are the most potentially devastating of these risks, which is why the National Fire Protection Association’s National Electrical Code (NEC) includes provisions for equipment used in these applications. Lighting fixtures are among the hazardous-location electrical products requiring particular attention from contractors and other specifiers. Cable Tray Overcomes Challenges Peter Walsh, PE Cable tray manufacturers have focused on reducing the total installation cost. For instance, Snake Tray® developed a hand bendable design that allows installers to create tray bends in 10 seconds. Built-in mounting hardware also reduces the assembly time. Single point connection between trays uses a one-bolt connector for the mechanical connection, electrical bond, and high frequency drain point. T&B Lean Construction Makes the Bank by Reducing Labor Costs Thomas & Betts Electrical contractors know that labor costs make or break the bank within the wall and the ceiling of a facility, due to the assembly of products that route, support, protect and terminate the electrical system. The increasing complexity of electrical systems is making the business more and more labor intensive. As a result, a new industry term is emerging: lean construction. Lutron Electronics Co., Inc.
