G&W acquires Hotsplicer Corporation

Effective immediately, G&W Electric Company, Blue Island, IL, has purchased
the assets of the Hotsplicer Corporation, Waucanda, IL, including the rights to all
their product lines. G&W will continue to manufacture the products at Hotsplicer's
facility for the immediate future although plans to move manufacturing to its ISO
9001 Blue Island facility later in the year.

Hotsplicer Corporation has been a quality supplier of epoxy resin products to
the electric utility market since 1975. Products include encapsulated vacuum
switches, current limiting fuses, junction bars, apparatus bushings, tranisition
modules, and field molded splices.

"The acquisition of Hotsplicer's epoxy resin technology and existing products
are an ideal compliment to G&W's core competencies in medium and high voltage
products", explains John H. Mueller, G&W president. "G&W has been a supplier of
electrical engineered cable accessory and switchgear products to the utility and
industrial markets since 1905. The addition of Hotsplicer will immediately expand
our product offering and will play a key role in the technological advances in our next
generation products."

G&W is a ISO 9001 certified global supplier of SF6 load and fault interrupting
switchgear; automatic transfer and distribution automation control packages;
distribution and transmission cable terminations and joints; and current limiting
protectors through 38kV, 5000A continuous.
