HUB-B

Hubbell Inc

A maker of electrical and electronic products that keep power flowing, Hubbell builds the components utilities and businesses use to transmit, distribute, and control electricity across the grid. It was founded in 1888 by inventor Harvey Hubbell II, who patented the pull-chain lamp socket and the separable plug and receptacle that helped bring electricity into everyday homes. The company is named after its founder, and its early inventions in Bridgeport, Connecticut, shaped how people first plugged into the modern electrical age.
