    Plug-In Raceway provides on-demand power in a scalable format. Offering the ability to add or relocate plug-in modules anywhere on the raceway, the product features a smooth aluminum finish and requires nearly one-third less installation time than the leading competitor, according to the company. Designed to replace traditional wire and conduit runs with copper bus bars that are pre-installed into the raceway sections, the raceway allows users to simply snap any number of pre-assembled plug-in modules into place on the raceway backplane for an instant connection — without having to interrupt power. Available in white or metallic silver with custom colors offered on request, the product comes in 20A, 40A, or 60A bussing; 120/208VAC or 277/480VAC; 3 phase.
