Ground connector

The Cadweld Plus One Shot ground connector produces a permanent exothermic connection to a ground rod that will not loosen, corrode, or increase in resistance for the life of the installation. The ground connector's single-use pack makes the connection to a ground rod without a mold or starting material. The device allows welds to be completed up to 6 ft away, and its refractory ceramic resists breaking if dropped.

Circuit identifiers

This line of automatic circuit identifiers is designed to locate breakers with second-pass indication so electricians can locate the proper circuit without having to interrupt power. Offered with a digital or analog receiver, this noncontact voltage sensor and GFCI tester allows one person to verify the presence of power on a 120VAC circuit through its audible and visual indicators. It features a noncontact voltage sensor for 80VAC to 300VAC, a plug-in GFCI receptacle tester, and a low-battery indicator.
