Even though its actual roots date back to 1913, the IBERVILLE brand name came to light in 1941 when production began in its new manufacturing plant in Iberville, Québec. The Iberville Fittings Limited company focused on quality, innovation and service and quickly became Canada’s leading brand of electrical boxes and roughing-in products. This history of excellence and innovation throughout the years has continued to this day. This includes our newest LHTQ Family of one screw mounting device boxes. Iberville(®) products have been a part of the Thomas & Betts family since 1994.

The Teck cable fitting’s evolution began in the 1950s when the Teck-Hughes gold mine in Ontario required a special fitting. It was to be installed with a new flexible cable that combined a metal armor and a PVC jacket. Thomas & Betts engineers jumped to the challenge to create a fitting to be used with this new Teck cable. Thus was born the Thomas & Betts Teck connector. Over the years, Thomas & Betts engineers, incorporating feedback from end-users, developed and expanded the product offering. The result is Star Teck(®), a family of high performance fittings that remains the industry’s benchmark for reliable construction and ease of installation. Known for our tradition of innovation we are pleased to announce the latest addition to the family, the Star Teck(®) Extreme Director. Our manufacturing location for Star Teck(®) is located in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec.

It was in Montreal North, in 1970 when a tool maker, a salesman and a dentist each invested $5000 to begin a meter socket company. Their focus was to cater to the special needs of the municipalities and electrical utilities across Canada and manufacture custom quality products. Soon Microlectric(®) became the standard for meter sockets across Canada. Microlectric(®) was acquired by Thomas & Betts in 1996 and continues to offer a full line of overhead, underground and combination meter sockets. Accessories, such as service masts and pole line hardware, are all produced in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec.

Thomas & Betts centralized its production in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec, constructing aluminum and steel cable tray systems.

Bill Marr worked tirelessly in his Toronto area basement shop to make a safer and more efficient way of joining two electrical conductors. In 1914 he invented the first pressure type wire connector(a set-screw version with a wood cap), which was the forerunner to the modern day wire connector. The Marrette(®) brand has so revolutionized the way branch circuits are connected that the brand name ‘marrette’ became synonymous with ‘wire connector’. The highly respected Marrette brand name has become an integral part of Thomas & Betts products since 1997 and is manufactured in Pointe-Claire, Quebec.

It all started in 1917 when the A’G’A company was the market leader for building light house equipment in North America. Their know-how was easily transferred to install equipment for the first lighted airport runways in Canada and the United States during the 1920s and 30s. The necessity for modernizing underground electrical distribution systems for airport lighting at the close of the war induced efforts to improve direct-burial transformers and cable connectors. The result of which provided a new safety standard for airport runways and taxiway lighting systems. The reliability of these products soon became standard equipment for all classes of airports. In 1984, worldwide responsibility and manufacturing of airfield lighting products were consolidated in Canada. In January of 1996, Amerace became part of the Thomas & Betts family and continues manufacturing its product for the world in Scarborough, Ontario.

All-Struct(tm) products provide municipalities, transport authorities and contractors across North America with a complete structure solution for roadway, traffic and area lighting. With manufacturing facilities in Dorval, Quebec, the All-Struct(tm) brand name began in 2001 as Al-Struct(tm), reflecting the fact that all structures were made of aluminum.
In 2007, Thomas & Betts expanded the product line to include both aluminum and steel structures in a range of styles, materials and finishes. To reflect this expansion, a new brandname – All-Struct(tm) – was born. In 2008, the line was further expanded to include an extensive selection of traffic accessories.
