Cooper Wiring Devices

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cooper Wiring Devices is a division of Cooper Industries and provides a range of residential, institutional and industrial grade electrical devices and wiring for consumers and building contractors. The company is the successor to both Arrow-Hart & Hegeman and Eagle Electric, both of which Cooper Industries had acquired. The Arrow-Hart brand is still used by Cooper Wiring Devices for some of their commercial products.

In 2005, Cooper Industries acquired the Torrance, CA-based company Novitas Inc. (occupancy sensors, switch packs and accessories) and merged it into Cooper Wiring Devices.[1]

Cooper Wiring's key competitors today include Hubbell, Leviton, Legrand and Lutron Electronics Company.

Cooper Industries has been acquired by Eaton in 2012.[2]
