Winners of GE Tools website promotion

June 22, 2009
b_200_0_16777215_0___images_stories_WebNews2009_getoolswebsitepromotion02.jpgTo celebrate the launch of the GE TOOLS website, GE Consumer & Industrial offered consulting engineers the opportunity to win a grand prize of a two-day, all-expenses paid training session at GE’s renowned Nela Park Lighting and Electrical Institute in Cleveland, Ohio.

In early June, seven grand-prize winners—accompanied by their GE account managers—participated in an in-depth, hands-on “Arc Flash Mitigation” training session. Said one participant: “It was an invaluable opportunity to learn more about techniques for arc flash mitigation—a particularly hot topic these days!”

As part of the same promotion, GE awarded 16 Blackberry Storms and 22 GE storm jackets. GE Tools brings together a selection of estimating tools and energy calculators to help in the design and specification of electrical distribution and lighting systems.

Winners take part in a personal training session on arc flash mitigation, accompanied by Ajay Gupta and Shane Hall (account managers for GE Electrical Distribution products) and Maurice D’Mello, GE trainer.
