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.

Wax or Polymer – Understanding the Options with Cable Lubricants
Wire and cable pulling can be strenuous work, especially when distances
stretch several floors or more. Lubricants are an important part of this
process – they help reduce friction between cables and conduit, which,
in turn, reduces the risk of damage, wear and tear on cable insulators.

Prefabrication Adds Power to Electrical Contractors’ Installation Work
Electrical contracting is, by its nature, a bespoke profession – that
is, every installation features its own unique design quirks requiring
customization. At the same time, though, contractors also now are often
dealing with the need to do more with fewer workers. As a result,
prefabrication is becoming a bigger part of many companies’ operations.

How to Melt Away Your Snow-Shoveling Chores
With winter now in force, the snow shovel and bag of ice-melting pellets
have returned like migrating songbirds to their seasonal perches on my
back deck. I live in a part of southeast New England that doesn’t get a
lot of snow, on average, but is also quite capable of getting buried if a
nor’easter follows just the right track up the coast.

Cable and Conductor Management: Wiring Troughs and More
There have been many times when I was elbows deep in a wiring trough or
raceway. We sometimes called the smaller units gutters, but all were
raceways and wiring troughs.
