Electrical safety impacts the design of the simple Ethernet switch with the new Active GracePort from Grace Engineered Products. The current NFPA 70e electrical safety mandate severely regulates voltage exposure to workers, thereby making simple tasks like opening an electrical enclosure door for diagnostics very time consuming. The new Active GracePort is transforming the 30-minute task of diagnostics into a 30-second one, which greatly increases employee safety and productivity.

Grace Engineered Product announces that it now offers UL Type 12 rated housings. The innovators of the GracePort® convenience interfaces continue to come through on the challenge to provide the best and most complete selection products that increase electrical safety and promote employee productivity. Housings with the UL rating of 12 are for “indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, falling dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids,” according to Underwriters Laboratories.

Every year since 2004 when the US Senate unanimously passed Resolution 334 deeming May National Electrical Safety Month, emphasis has been placed on educating the American people about the “importance of respecting electricity and practicing electrical safety in the home, school, and workplace”.

Grace Engineered Products’ Phil Allen recently returned from a trip to China where he addressed more than 150 Chinese college business students on the issues pertaining to American small business owners.

The innovators of GracePort® convenience interfaces are continuing to come through on the challenge to provide the best products that increase electrical safety and employee productivity. Grace Engineered Products launched TempCovers, one of the latest and most unique safety devices that will increase productivity, at IEEE Safety Conference in Dallas, Rockwell Automation's Complete Automation on the Move (CAOTM) in Cleveland, and at the St. Louis Electrical Expo in Missouri last week.
