SYCAMORE, ILL. – IDEAL Electrical™ is preparing electricians to meet their increasing workload by incorporating efficient, time-saving new technologies into its latest products. As the emphasis on electrification and renewable energy expands, an estimated 60% of households will need to upgrade their circuit breaker to fully electrify their home. The ongoing shortage of licensed electricians only increases the burden. The National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) estimates that during the next decade, there will be 80,000 electrician job openings annually.
As demand for electrical services increases, the need for new products that simplify and expedite an electrician’s work is more critical than ever. In response to this need, IDEAL Electrical™ is pleased to introduce a new option to its fish tape lines that will save electricians time and effort on the job: BlueView™ digital readout. With a BlueView™ screen, electricians can view the precise length of tape they have fed, improving accuracy and efficiency. In addition, the new E-Class™ fish tape line expands the IDEAL portfolio of non-conductive fish tapes and features a glow-in-the-dark eyelet.
“We’re proud to offer fish tape products with industry-leading features such as a digital readout incorporated into the handle,” said Carmen Cardillo, General Manager, North America - IDEAL Electrical™. “This technological advancement highlights our commitment to delivering electricians the superior quality, performance, and durability they've come to expect from IDEAL.”
