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
and he’s in Arizona, so the time difference can be a pain.
We just missed each other the day before because he was over with the neighbors across the street.

Today’s EV Chargers Powering Up Functionality
The electric vehicle (EV) market has had a great 2022, reaching
approximately 6% of total U.S. auto and truck sales in the third
quarter. While that might seem a small percentage, consider that it’s up
from just 2.2% during the same quarter in 2020.

There’s no getting around it. A lot of people spent a lot more time in
their homes the past few years. And while some of it was by choice, not
all of it was.
I retired from electrical work and work my copywriting business totally from home now.
That was a choice.

What Makes Steel “Mild” – Ironing Out Your Metal Material Options
Looking through a manufacturer’s online enclosure catalog recently, I
came across a term I hadn’t heard before. Now, I’m not a contractor, so I
likely haven’t seen as many of these listings as you might have. But I
am a journalist who has covered the construction industry for several
decades, and the term “mild steel” stuck out to me when it showed up as a
material option for the maker’s broad range of enclosure offerings.

Bonding vs. Grounding: A Primer
Bonding and grounding are simple concepts, but, unfortunately, they’re
also easily confused with each other. Definitions of one term often get
wrapped up in the definitions of the other, and, before long, one can
begin thinking the words are interchangeable.
“Grounding” refers to the creation of a path from electrical equipment
to the earth. It is intended to protect equipment and help prevent fires
that might occur due to high voltages resulting from lightning strikes,
line surges or unintended contact with higher-voltage lines.
