This year’s grand prize winner takes the guesswork out of circuit breaker tripping issues.

Congratulations to this year's platinum, gold and silver winners! Established in 2000, the EC&M Product of the Year competition recognizes excellence in new product development for the electrical industry. Honoring inventiveness in product design, as well as improvements in safety and efficiency, the competition’s two-fold judging and voting process determines the most ground-breaking products of the past year that allow electrical design professionals, installers, and maintenance personnel to perform their jobs more efficiently and effectively.

Products eligible for this year’s competition were those introduced to the market between Jan. 1, 2015, and Dec. 31, 2015. A hand-picked panel of judges ranked the 167 products entered into this year’s contest based on a uniform list of scoring criteria, ultimately selecting 39 category winners for the first phase of the competition. These category winners were then narrowed down to just three through an online poll available to our readers on the EC&M website. By casting their votes, EC&M subscribers determined the platinum, gold, and silver products of the year. We've also included the platinum winners from year's past.
