We’ve all seen how quickly a hotel can be erected. One day cement mixers arrive on a job site to pour a foundation and cast wall forms on the adjacent ground. Shortly after, cranes are brought in to lift the concrete slabs and support columns into their positions and voila! a new Marriott Courtyard, Best Western, Hampton Inn, or Holiday Inn Express appears in just a few weeks’ time.
Snake Tray has worked with several nationally acclaimed casinos across North America, installing our Snake Bus power distribution system and hand-bendable cable trays beneath the raised access floors (RAF) on which gaming tables and slot machines stand. This article explains why casinos favor RAFs and how Snake Tray solutions are a natural fit.
Some utilities are producing so much renewable solar energy that supply is outpacing demand. They need to store that surplus electricity to power the grid with clean energy after sunset and to complement fossil fuel-based energy production during peak consumption periods or unplanned outages. To make that happen utilities are building battery energy storage systems (BESS) adjacent to the solar panel arrays and inverters that transform megawatts of DC current into usable AC power.
Today’s high school graduates are encouraged to go to college; few are pushed toward the trades. They want white collar jobs with a fancy office and a six-figure income, and some will achieve that. What many do not realize is that with wages ranging between $90 and $140 per hour for a licensed electrician, that six-figure income can be achieved without four years of study and incurring a mountain of debt.
Wiring commercial spaces for power is perhaps one of the costliest and labor-intensive aspects of any construction project. Pulling copper through mounted conduit and stub-ups requires expensive skilled labor and is time consuming.
