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.
Snake Tray® Announces the New Power Module Ideal For Casinos
Casino Snake is the modular answer to providing multiple power and data circuits to gaming machines in the casino. This plug-and-play system allows you to add and delete equipment or make moves quickly and easily. The unit is UL listed and approved to connect and disconnect while energized, meaning the circuit breaker does not need to be locked to make changes. As easy as unplugging a lamp, the user can disconnect and move an entire cluster of machines with a minimal amount of disruption to the gaming floor.
Snake Tray Helps Contractors Overcome Construction Labor Shortages
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.
Snake Tray Custom Enclosures Hide in Plain Sight
Bringing power and connectivity to the point of need is usually one of the final steps in any construction project and often requires the most flexibility. It isn’t until the end of a job when electrical contractors learn the provided custom enclosures weren’t designed or sized properly, that additional data lines and ports or an integrated power module are needed, or that the customer changed the floor layout, cubicle arrangement, or data port configuration without notice.
Repowering and Upgrading Aging Solar Installations
When solar modules reach end-of-life there is a lot more to replacing them than just swapping out the panels. Like everything else in this world that is technology-related, things are getting smaller and more energy efficient while becoming much more powerful.

Snake Bus: The BEST Power Distribution System for Under Raised Access Floors
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.
