the original inventor of insulated figure 8-shaped conductor, Insul-8
set the standards for crane electrification over 50 years ago.
Insul-8 is now part of the Conductix-Wampfler family of mobile
electrification products.
Met-Con's
expertise and product offering are unparalleled. Condutix offers a full
range of insulated conductor bar designs from 40 - 6,000 amperes.
