Abstract

AMA Research has published the 8th Edition of the report: “Electrical Accessories Market- UK 2009-2013”, which focuses on providing a comprehensive and up to date review of the structure of the electrical accessories market in 2009.

Product sectors reviewed include:

• WIRING ACCESSORIES
• LOW VOLTAGE CIRCUIT PROTECTION EQUIPMENT
• LOW VOLTAGE CABLE SYSTEMS

• New Housebuilding Market
• Construction Market
• Legislation
• Pricing
• International Trade

The market has declined significantly in the past 12 to 18 months as housebuilding and commercial construction have fallen. However, the market has benefited from a move to more integrated systems within both the domestic and commercial sectors providing value growth in the upper end of key sectors such as wiring accessories.
