Happy Year of the Snake and internally Happy Fiscal New Year!

Hey Man!

I hope you are enjoying the fiscal new year, that brings us the year of the snake.
I don't know if the snake is bearish or bullish.

The EATON secret part of the week is the 10935H series reset.
When you look for a mechanical 30mm reset you will have problems in EATON catalogs.
Start looks for 10935H and browse VISTA if you have that access with EATON.
Some of that family is still offered.
I have a bad copy of a 1978 catalog page 235 taped to my wall for this.

ABB is making a breaker lug kit change that will contradict what the catalog says.
So I attached it below.

ABB is making improvements to its Tmax lug kits, which will bring them into alignment with the rest of ABB’s global offering. The following lug kits are affected:

• KT4TN and KT4TN-4
• KT5TGD and KT5TGD-4
• K8TL and K8TM

The changes for all kits will be phased in as we deplete our present stock. Please note the following dates:

• T8 lug kit changes starting in February 2013
• T4 and T5 sizes transitioning in April 2013

During the transition period, ABB will make every effort to ship orders complete with one style. You should, however, advise customers that they may see an order with different styles of kits during this transition period.

Details for the change to each size are provided in the attached. The changes will not affect pricing or performance of the lugs. All other lug kits will remain unaffected.

For additional information, questions or concerns, please contact ABB Low Voltage Products' customer support at 888-385-1221 or lvps.support@us.abb.com.

This change will cause confusion for decades to come.

Next we will do a brief shout out on movies. I saw Hansel & Gretel Witch Hunters in 3D yesterday. It was fun with some good looking witches. Then I went to see my Houston Cougars blow a big lead on Tulane and loose at home. Did they bring vodoo dolls of us or what?  

I would see the movie again, I hope I don't see my Cougars play that poorly again.    

Have a good week. The Houston Rodeo Cookoff is this week, so things will be hopping.

 

cheers
