February 28, 2022

A pioneer in the design and manufacture of Teck cable fittings, the Star Teck product line remains an indisputable industry standard to this day.

Teck cable derived its name from one of its first users, the Teck-Hughes Gold Mines in Kirkland Lake, Ontario.

Starting with the introduction of the 10464 Teck fitting in 1953 and gathering feedback from end-users working in the harshest and most corrosive industrial environments, the Star Teck line of high-performance Teck cable fittings remains the industry benchmark for safety, quality construction and ease of installation.

Designed and manufactured in Canada to meet the unique challenges of Canadian industry, the Star Teck cable fittings line continues to evolve, keeping pace with technological advances whilst improving performance and installation efficiency.

Why NOARK’s 12VDC Shunt Trip Coils for MCCBs Make Power Systems Reliable and Safer

Circuit breakers are an essential component of any modern electrical system. Designed to protect your home or business from potential overloads or short circuits, these devices are your first line of defense against electrical fires. There are, however, situations where remote tripping of the circuit breaker may be required. It could be for operational reasons, for example being able to turn off machinery from the switch room which is not in the same location as the machine. In emergency situations, for example in fire outbreak, personnels can shut down power to a building without going in front of the breaker to do that.

Noark Electric Explains How Motor Contactors Work: A 101 Guide

Motor contactors are electrical switches used as means of control, connecting or disconnecting electric motors and other load devices to the power supply. They are typically designed for normally open contacts, which ensures the load disconnects whenever the coil of the contactor de-energizes. Because this interrupts heavy motor currents, arcing must be suppressed and controlled with an arc extinguishing device, which functions alongside the contactor’s electromagnetic and control systems.
