Tip of the Week

What is a wire raceway?

A terrific wiring and cabling solution, that's what!

Raceways are an affordable way to run wires and cabling throughout residential, commercial or industrial environments. Of course, you need to make sure you are selecting the right product for the right application. Not every raceway is made for multi faceted applications.

Take the panduit raceway, for example. Although useful in many environments, it can only hold, guide and protect wires up to 300 volts and its made of plastic rather than metal. This makes it very versatile, but it might not be the right choice for a truly industrial environment like a mechanics shop or a military industrial area.
