The wiring equipment market - Italy

1.1 Introduction

Wiring equipment is a growing industry that deals with the supply of tools and equipment required for the installation, connection, and management of wired networks. It includes the manufacture of wiring equipment intended for the transmission of electrical current or not, for electrical circuits regardless of the material used, specifically: [Codiciateco]

• non-conductive plastic equipment, including plastic junction boxes, plates and the like, plastic power line accessories and socket covers
• distribution bars
• GFCIs (ground fault circuit interrupters)
• lightning rods
• electrical circuit breakers (e.g., push buttons, snap switches, cylinders)
• electrical outlets
• electrical circuit enclosures (e.g., splices, sockets, switch boxes)
• electrical conduits and accessories

Wiring is a technique for arranging electrical connections between components of a circuit, equipment, or facility, having the purpose of minimizing space occupancy and improving efficiency.[Treccani] In recent years, this technique is used not only in the management of electrical networks, but also in the organization of fiber optic cables. The city of Turin, home of the CSELT, was the first to be completely wired with an optical network in 1977. Currently, the fiber optic network is widely spread throughout Italy, and the country is experiencing significant growth in the sector.[Sorgenia]

The global power cable market size has been estimated at $202.05 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2 percent from 2023 to 2030. Increasing urbanization and infrastructure development around the world are some of the main factors driving the market.[Grandviewresearch]
