PROFILE |
 |
Legrand's low-voltage electrical fittings and wiring accessories provide shock therapy for homes, commercial buildings, and factories. The French company's products include automated lighting and heating controls, audio and video house porters, security systems, dimmers and timers, circuit breakers, and distribution cabinets. Legrand sells these products worldwide through wholesalers, with nearly 60% of revenues coming from sales outside France. The company has subsidiaries throughout the world; in the US these include Pass & Seymour, Ortronics, and The Watt Stopper. The Decoster and Verspieren families control Legrand, but have agreed to sell the company to Schneider Electric in a deal valued at about $6.4 billion.
