Rittal has outlined five trends for cloud computing and data centres that IT managers should have on their agenda.
On average electrical contractors’ average bonuses in Saskatchewan — $4,880 — are almost $2,000 more than bonuses in any other province.
Electrical contractors working for the government have the highest hourly wage, although self-employed electricians are not too far behind.

The success of PoE technology for other use cases, such as phone systems, has not translated into widespread acceptance for the lighting market. However, a Navigant research report forecasts that global revenue for PoE lighting will grow from an estimated US$35.8 million in 2016 to US$419.9 million in 2025.
