The importance of effective motor and motor circuit protection cannot be over emphasized. Motors are consistently the largest single cause of industrial and commercial fires, and in today’s highly automated commercial and industrial facilities, the failure of even one relatively minor motor may shut down an entire installation. As a result, it is vitally important that there is at least a basic understanding of how motors and their related electrical systems can be properly protected.

Last June, we announced we are moving our Cincinnati headquarters to 5500 Ridge Ave., in the summer of 2016. July 2016 was the month we closed down our 737 facility and began conducting business at the new 95,000 sq ft facility in Columbia Township. Since the move, we have worked on making this building the new CBT home, and we are proud of all the progress we’ve made!
