ElectricalReference.com Expands Database, Now Features Over 1.8 Million Electrical Parts

San Jose, CA - Relectric Supply Company, a leading innovator in the electrical distribution and control e-marketplace, has announced the significant expansion of ElectricalReference.com (eRef), its free, comprehensive and unparalleled electrical parts resource site.

With the expansion, the ElectricalReference.com database now contains information on over 1.8 million electrical parts, including the most current manufacturer list prices, distributor column prices, catalog data sheets and detailed product descriptions.

ElectricalReference.com was established in 2005 for use by contractors, distributors and engineers. eRef contains data on virtually every electrical product, including many hard-to-find parts that are currently off the market. Users can search the complete eRef database directly from the website or they can download a free toolbar which provides continuous access to the database from any Internet browser.

In addition to its search engine, ElectricalReference.com also features interactive user forums. The forums were designed for questions, comments, news and general discussion. They also provide a venue for users to buy and sell electrical equipment.

Unlike preceding electrical reference services such as TRA-SER and EPIC, ElectricalReference.com requires neither a subscription nor periodic fees. The eRef database also updates automatically on a weekly basis, whereas TRA-SER and EPIC require users to manually download and install updates. These factors make eRef the most accurate, thorough and accessible resource of its kind.
