Exhibition Information at a Glance

The Booth Presented a Broad Electrical Portfolio
The display at Booth 4238 brought several complementary electrical product categories into one presentation. This combination helped visitors view how metering, distribution, circuit protection, switching, and power access products fit within residential, commercial, utility, and project-based electrical applications.
  • Load centers and distribution equipment were presented for organized circuit management across varied electrical installations.
  • Meter sockets and meter bases were shown as connection products for utility metering and downstream electrical distribution.
  • Circuit breakers represented the protection category within the displayed product portfolio.
  • Wall switches and standard receptacles demonstrated practical wiring-device options for everyday electrical use.
  • USB outlets and GFCI outlets highlighted power-access choices that addressed charging convenience and application-specific protection needs.
The combined display reflected the brands’ attention to a complete electrical product offering. The presentation allowed visitors to consider individual devices as well as the broader relationship between service entrance equipment, branch-circuit protection, and final power-access points.
