AEMC introduces Dual Display Clamp-on Meters
AEMC’s Models 670 and 675 are True RMS clamp-on meters that provide RMS measurements for today’s non-linear electrical environments. These meters are designed to measure and display amps and volts at the same time. They are also auto-ranging and provide the best measurement range and resolution for troubleshooting, and are sized for comfortable, one-handed operation. The tapered and hooked jaw design facilitates maneuvering in crowded wiring and breaker panels, making it easy to select conductors. www.aemc.com.

Web-Enabled Energy Monitor
The ability to manage your energy consumption is just a click away with Web-Mon. The submeter provides users with one-page snapshots of real-time and historical energy usage data accessible via any standard internet web-browser. Easy-to-read energy dashboards that include kWh and kW demand, as well as carbon footprint displays of estimated CO2, NOx, SO2 and other parameters.

Reel and Cable Handling Machinery
Reel-O-Matic has introduced a new heavy-duty self-contained shaft-less pay-off and take-up cable processing system. Nicknamed the "Cat-Walk" since both the pay-off and take-up units are united on one integrated platform, the machine is operated with a wireless radio remote control (cable free) to respool material from any vantage point, up to several hundred feet away. The Model FMPT4/FMP is powered by an AC Vector variable-speed, torque-controlled drive system for increased respooling speeds up to 0-115 RPMs. The Shaftless FMPT4 is designed to handle reel diameters up to 60 inches O.D. x up to 4,000 pounds. The FMP8 shaftless pay-out system is engineered to support reels up to 60 inches O.D. x 8,000 pounds. The FMP8 includes a hydraulically powered pay-off and rewind assist benefit that feeds and rewinds cable to and from the FMPT4. A potentiometer controlled electromagnetic brake provides adjustable back tension during the spooling operation and prevents the supply reel from overspinning when the take-up drive slows down or stops.

Aluminum Riser MC
Southwire’s feeder size Riser MC cable with AlumaFlex conductors is a time-saving solution for vertical installations. An attractive alternative to both pipe and wire standard MC cable, Riser MC cable eliminates the need for any type of special conductor supports or offsets because of an internal polymeric binder under the armor that holds the conductors in place. It's manufactured using AlumaFlex AA-8000 Series conductors and is available in 3/0 AWG through 750 kcmil. Southwire

Ground Rod Clamps
The SP58 Stainless Steel Ground Rod Clamp is made from a non-rigid stainless steel metal strip that will not crack when excessive torque is applied during installation. The innovative design and material allow the SP58 to conform around the ground rod and conductor as the bolt is tightened, increasing the conduction area of the connection. The one-piece thread insert provides a clean internal thread profile with a tighter thread pitch, which creates stability and improves performance. If over-tightened, the bolt head is designed to shear, making a secure connection instead of stripping or cracking like a traditional acorn clamp. Erico

Coated Lamps
The protective coating on CoverShield safety-coated lamps meets industry regulations for glass and chemical containment. If a lamp ruptures whether by impact, dropping, unusual stress or thermal shock, CoverShield’s protective coating will contain glass shards and other material within the envelope. This containment helps offset the risk of contamination or injury while eliminating the expense of cleanup. The CoverShield product line includes CFLs, linear fluorescent, HID, general-service incandescent and heat lamps. Linear lamps are approved by NSF, CFIA, USDA, FDA and OSHA. Custom coating is available for any HLT product. Halco Lighting Technologies

Plugs and Receptacles for Hazardous Locations
The DXN37C product line features plugs and receptacles with 37 electrical contacts. Each contact on the plug and receptacle can carry up to 5A at 220V, making the DXN37C excellent for control applications. The DXN37C devices are suitable for hazardous areas because they are ATEX-rated for use in Zones 1 and 2 (gas) and Zone 21 and 22 (dust) classified areas. They enable quick and safe connect and disconnect of machinery or systems with multiple control loops, feedback switches, photo eyes, lights and other devices with low amperage requirements. Meltric

Poke-Through Devices
Evolution Series poke-through devices are designed to be installed in 6-inch or 8-inch holes in the slab. Instead of core-drilling these holes after the slab is poured, contractors can now take advantage of Evolution Pre-Pour Sleeves. These PVC sleeves attach to the structural decking and maintain a 6-1/8-inch or 8-1/8-inch cast-in hole. Each unit includes three attachment legs, thumb screws and end caps. After the pour, the contractor simply removes the pre-pour sleeve and installs the Evolution poke-thru device in the hole. The sleeve, which is not a fire-classified product, must be removed. Labor-intensive core drilling is eliminated, saving time and money on the job. Wiremold

Wind Turbine Cable
Oil-, solvent-, chemical- and fuel-resistant, GreenLINX Cables are manufactured specifically to withstand the rigors of wind power environments. Their flexible construction allows for easy termination and installation and helps the cables to fit in tight spaces. GreenLINX cables also carry Underwriters Laboratories’ WTTC approval for 1,000V cable. In years past there was no standard for cables used in wind turbines. This new standard, which stands for Wind Turbine Tray Cable, is now required by the UL for use in wind turbines. Not using cables with WTTC approval can mean costly replacements down the road. The cables are available through a new partnership with C&M Corp. Allied Wire & Cable

Fan/Fixture Mount Kits
Erico is offering two new heavy-duty Fan/Fixture Mount Kits, part of the Caddy line of electrical fixings, fasteners and supports. The 512HDFM35 single-brace kit can support up to 35 pounds for fans and 50 pounds for fixtures. The 512HDFM70 double-brace kit can support up to 70 pounds for fans and 90 pounds for fixtures. Included in each mounting kit are two Fixture Mount Stabilizer Clips (FMSBC1) and the innovative Caddy Speed Link universal support system, which serves as the means of support to meet the requirements of the NEC. The 2 1/8-inch electrical box is pre-mounted in the center of the brace and features open knockouts for quick and easy installation. The installed box position is also fully adjustable over 16 inches to provide a customizable installation. Both fan/fixture mount kits are UL-listed. Erico
