Lighting Considerations in Harsh Environments Steve Maurer, IME At home, most hazardous or harsh conditions we face would be weather related. Rain and snow and sleet might be the worst, although temperature can be a factor as well. However, in the industrial environment, hazards go way beyond that. Utility Solar Market Benefiting from Higher Voltage Arrays Chuck Ross There’s no question the U.S. solar industry is growing by leaps and bounds. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), the nation’s solar capacity was 2 gigawatts (GW) in 2012 – by the end of 2019, capacity topped 71 GW. Utility-scale solar arrays are a major market driver, with a record number of projects now under contract and waiting to be built. Hazard Communication Lighting and More Steve Maurer, IME Recently, I was in a processing plant where they were upgrading the alarm system. This was a major overhaul that included more than just a fire alarm array. In fact, they were installing systems for fire, weather, and chemical emergencies. Letting employees and other people know about impending danger is vitally important in today's work environment. You need to give them adequate warning to get to a safe place of refuge. Hubbell RACO/TayMac/Bell RACO: STAB-iT® II Boxes STAB-iT II boxes from Hubbell’s RACO brand let you install any type of MC up to 3x faster than using traditional connectors. Roomy 4-11/16” boxes include an improved connector design that locks-in 3 cables plus a knockout on the same side of the box as the connector.
