Shedding Some Light on Full-Spectrum LEDs
As someone who’s tracked LED lighting since its early days as a
commercially available technology, my own experience with the products
has evolved. I live in an older house with overhead lighting only in the
kitchen and bathrooms, so this has mostly meant experimenting with LED
bulbs (or “lamps,” in lighting designer lingo) in the 14 or 15 table
fixtures scattered around my home.

Going Underground: Wire Management in Direct Burial Projects
Not all wiring is created equal – after all, some of it has to be buried
underground. While this cable might not see the varied weather exposure
of unburied, outdoor lines, it faces its own unique challenges.

Whole Home Protection – SPDs
Today’s homes, no matter the date of construction, have one thing in
common. Scads of electronic devices populate our personal domiciles,
even those of us “old folks.”
When you think about it, there
aren’t too many appliances and pieces of equipment that aren’t
controlled by some sort of circuit board, or even computer-style mother
board.

Look, Ma, No Wires – and a New Business Opportunity
Lighting without wires – that’s the promise solar-powered security
lighting offers homeowners. If you’re an electrical contractor, you
might see that lack of wires as a threat to your installation business –
after all, if there aren’t any wires, why would customers turn to you
for help?

Look Beyond Lumens per Watt for Even More LED Energy Savings
In just a little more than a decade, LED lighting systems have moved
from a not-quite-yet-there technology to one that essentially owns the
market, especially in commercial applications. With efficacy ratings
that now surpass those of once-dominant fluorescent fixtures, LEDs also
can operate for years before needing replacement, versus months for
fluorescent tubes.

Temporary Commercial Power Distribution
When working as an electrician in a processing plant, I was often called
in to work on renovations, new area construction, and emergency repair
scenarios. Often there wasn’t permanent power available, so temporary
power using extension cords was necessary to power up tools and
equipment for the job.
