Electrical Equipment
Electrical equipment supplies power to facilities and work projects. Electrical products and power management supplies can be used to run equipment and install electrical systems into buildings. Wires, fittings, and switches are necessary for making repairs to electrical systems. Circuit breakers, push buttons, and other electrical parts can be used to create electrical components. Portable power supplies keep job sites up and running when wired electricity is not available.

Electrical Boxes, Conduit, Raceways & Strut
Electrical Boxes, Conduit, Raceways & Strut
Wire and cable run through carrier systems to deliver power, current, or electrical signals to equipment or throughout a system. The wire and cable create a circuit for moving electricity within a building or within machinery and appliances. Cable supports, wireways, conduit, and strut channels create carrier systems with pathways that guide and organize wire and cable. Electrical boxes and enclosures keep wire and cable connections and terminations concealed to protect them from damage or accidental contact.
Electrical Supplies
Electrical Supplies
Electrical supplies connect equipment to an electrical power source. Extension cords and power strips supply power to equipment beyond the reach of an outlet. Wall switches and receptacles provide a fixed access point for controlling and connecting to electrical power. Plugs and connectors make and maintain electrical connections. Wire management products protect, support, and organize wires and cables.

Electrical Tools
Electrical Tools
Electrical tools are used by electricians and contractors to pull, service, and install electrical and data cable. Cable-pulling tools such as fish tapes, fish sticks, and jaw grips are used for running wires through walls and electrical conduit. Cable and wire-stripping tools are a safe alternative to box cutters and provide precise cutbacks to prevent damage to cable strands when stripping cable sheath. Cable-tying tools attach cable to a support structure to keep in place, speeding installation and preventing overtightening that can damage cables.
Extension Cords, Power Strips & Cord Reels
Extension Cords, Power Strips & Cord Reels
Extension cords, power strips, and cord reels are products that supply power to devices that don’t have convenient access to a power source. Extension cords are a length of flexible electrical cable used to power devices located at a distance. They are commonly used when a device’s cord is too short to reach an electrical outlet or where outlets may be scarce. Power strips are a flexible cable with a block of electrical sockets that supply power to multiple devices at the same time from one power outlet. Also known as outlet strips, they are typically used to provide additional outlets in areas that don’t have enough wall receptacles for the number of devices. Extension cord reels hold extension cords for convenient access and storage, protecting cords from wear and damage, minimizing tripping hazards, and helping prevent tangling and kinking.

Fuses, Circuit Breakers & Safety Switches
Fuses, Circuit Breakers & Safety Switches
Power management supplies control how electrical power is distributed and regulated within a facility. Power distribution components join, split, terminate, ground, and configure an electrical system. Circuit breakers and fuses protect against overloads and short circuits. Power meters, supplies, and transformers monitor and regulate power usage. Safety switches and disconnects allow direct control for shutting down power in emergency situations.
Industrial Controls, Automation and Machine Safety
Industrial Controls, Automation and Machine Safety
Industrial controls monitor and regulate the operation of machinery and automated processes. Industrial automation products manage and track conditions such as operating temperature, processing time, production output, and lighting. Machine safety products provide safeguards against process-related hazards. Switches, relays, and operator interfaces send signals for turning machinery on or off or triggering the next step in a process.

Motor Controls
Motor Controls
Motor controls start, stop, regulate the speed, and change the rotation of electric motors. Contactors control power-circuit switching and allow automatic cutoff in response to a power failure. Motor starters monitor voltage during startup to protect motors from damage. Motor switches provide on/off control of pumps, compressors, manufacturing machinery, and other equipment.
Electrical Replacement Parts
Electrical Replacement Parts
Electrical replacement parts maintain electrical equipment and systems. They’re used to replace worn or broken electrical parts such as pin-and-sleeve interiors and single-pole connectors.

Voice and Data
Voice and Data
Voice and data equipment organizes, connects, and maintains telecommunications systems. Cabinets and racks house networking equipment such as servers and power-distribution units. Cables and patch cords transmit voice communications and data. Plates, housing, and jacks connect and organize telecom cable. Voice and data tools are used by telecom technicians and low-voltage electricians to test for connectivity and to splice, strip, and terminate cable during installation and maintenance.
Wire & Cable
Wire & Cable
Wire and cable are products that carry an electrical current from a power source to devices and equipment. Wire is characterized by a solid or stranded conductor protected by insulation and/or a jacket. Cable consists of one or more conductors wrapped in a sheath. The sheath binds the inner wires together, and its outer markings indicate the number of wires and size, or gauge (AWG), of wire within the sheathing. The lower the gauge, the thicker the wire, and the greater its capacity for electrical current. The color of the sheathing indicates recommended usages. Wire and cable are used in a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial applications, including running new circuits inside building walls and ceilings, supplying temporary power to portable tools and equipment, repairing or replacing faulty wiring in automotive components, and extending electrical service underground to sprinkler systems and outbuildings.
