Wago Corporation’s new Jugo-Nuts provide electricians with a portable container carrying job-site quantities of Wall-Nuts, Lever-Nuts or Lumi-Nuts connectors. Jugo-Nuts, measuring 4 5/8’’ square by 6 3/4’’ high, are positioned between smaller contractor boxes and bulk carton quantities. The jugs feature a screw-top lid for on-the-job convenience in new construction, remodels, retrofits or specialty projects.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
