* The Westinghouse Distribution and Controls Business
Unit was acquired by Eaton Electrical in 1994. The
acquisition included all of the Westinghouse electrical
distribution and control product business and also
included stipulations that the Westinghouse name cannot
be used by anyone else on these types of products for
years. Today, Eaton Electrical manufactures leading
electrical distribution and control products branded
"Eaton" or "Cutler-Hammer" which can replace
Westinghouse products in commercial and industrial
applications.
