ISSUE 33 OF LIVEWIRE As we welcome in September, it’s safe to say that 2017 will be over before we know it. Walking through various shopping establishments, I get the sense that the lead-up to Christmas is already well underway, with decorations already creeping into my peripheral vision. For many of us, the thought of the fastapproaching holiday season is both exciting and stressful. Nothing beats time away with the family, but the queue of jobs needing to be completed before that time can seem daunting. With that in mind, this edition of Livewire is designed to transition you towards the end of the year with some impressive offers and added value deals. Teaming up with Legrand, we’ve designed the ultimate promotion to help you switch your gear to Legrand for an entry into the biggest Melbourne Cup party in Ellerslie this November. We have 50 double passes up for grabs, so expect this to be a great experience. If that isn’t incentive enough, we have a sweet offer for those with a sweet tooth among us – every $30+GST spent on Legrand or HPM instantly gets you a peanut slab… Now that’s a sweet deal! As per usual, we have some great editorial content for you to enjoy during smoko. Make sure to check out the article on the Aeon Electrical Smart Ute; it’s the perfect combination of form and function, and a true show stopper. If you are interested in colour temperature and the recommended light for differing areas then don’t go past page 44. On behalf of the entire Ideal team, I’d like to thank you for taking the time to read Livewire and thank you for your patronage; I look forward to your continued feedback on our magazine.

London and Ford cleaning up their act ELECTRIC VEHICLES DELIVER CLEANER AIR IN MAJOR CITIES WORDS CHRISTINA WEDGWOOD PHOTOGRAPHY SOURCED
Big cities, with their concentrated populations and traffic congestion, are a source of significant air pollution, but we’re loving seeing companies like Ford Motor Company take initiatives to alleviate or improve the problem. According to the latest research, commercial vehicles make 280,000 trips a day in London, covering a total of 8 million miles. In fact, vans make up 75% of the peak commercial traffic, with more than 7,000 vehicles an hour on the road in the city centre alone. Joining forces with Transport for London, Ford are launching a project that will see select London businesses
trial 20 new plug-in hybrid (PHEV) Ford Transit Custom vans over 12 months. Running solely on electric power for the majority of city trips, the vans will reduce local emissions and offer enhanced productivity. Ideal for urban deliveries and maintenance work, the plug-in hybrid Transit Custom vans will be provided to a range of commercial fleets across different industries in central London to explore how these vehicles can contribute to cleaner air targets, while boosting productivity in busy urban working environments. The vans will be charged with electricity for zero emission trips, and will be fitted with an efficient on-board combustion engine for extended range when longer trips are necessary. An accompanying telematics system will collect data on the financial, operational and environmental performance of the vehicles, enabling

the benefits of electrified vehicles to be further optimised. The initiative forms an important part of Ford’s commitment to working with major cities to tackle their local transportation challenges and help people and goods move more freely. Ford have been vocal in their mission to lead the market in building electrified vehicles and are focusing on their areas of strength first, by electrifying their most popular, high volume commercial vehicles, trucks, SUVs and performance vehicles. Ford have plans in place to release 13 new global electrified models in the next five years, including a fully electric SUV, and a hybrid version of the iconic Ford Mustang. The Transit Custom plug-in hybrid is planned for commercial production in 2019 and is set to be the first plug-in hybrid technology in this segment of the market.

Legrand (HPM) - A brief history GETTING TO KNOW ONE OF NEW ZEALAND’S FAVOURITE BRANDS WORDS HAYDIN MARTIN PHOTOGRAPHY SOURCED Established in the 1930s, HPM grew from a dynamic husband and wife duo into one of Australasia’s largest innovators of electrical supplies. An industry pioneer, HPM was integral to the development of the Australian and New Zealand electrical industries and the safe accessibility of electricity in millions of homes across both nations. In February 2007, HPM was acquired by the Legrand Group for the second and final time, setting a new course in the history of the brand.
Now a part of Legrand’s extensive global network, HPM and Legrand products are an everday item in many electricians’ toolkits and are trusted by the trade, having been installed in Kiwi homes for decades. With such a rich history of innovation and achievement we, at Ideal, thought it would be interesting to see how the brand we all know came to be in 2017. Here’s a quick snapshot of HPM and Legrand’s history.
HPM wins a contract to make plugs and inlets for Sunbeam. This was the first time HPM made electrical plugs as we know them today. Jean Vespieren and Edouard Decoster takeover management of Legrand and 400 employees, focusing exclusively on the production of electrical installation wiring devices.
1868
1930s
Frederic Legrand and Mr Betoulle buy a porcelain factory. They call their company Legrand.
12 LIVEWIRE 4TH SEPT - 30TH OCT 2017
1940s HPM was formed in Sydney by Doris and Berthold Herrman. After founding a successful button moulding company in the 20s, the entrepreneurial couple bought a cantankerous, old plastic moulding machine, striking market success with knobs for radio sets. Legrand starts manufacturing switches in addition to tableware.
FEATURE
HPM experiments with new and exciting advertising campaigns designed to relate to the Australian culture and the swinging sixties, cementing HPM as an iconic Australian brand. Legrand set-up first subsidiary outside of France: Belgium.
1950s
1960s HPM starts making plugs and sockets under the HPM brand for the first time. The first catalogue contained 6 items, and All-way Rockers switches were all the rage. Legrand introduces the Mistral and Chambord ranges. At this time catalogue numbers were only 3 digits in length.
1970s Peter Simon, a German immigrant, electrical engineer, and Doris and Berthold Herrman’s son-in-law, becomes Managing Director of HPM. He leads the company to the forefront of the industry.
The Legrand Group acquires HPM, with more than 130,000 catalogue items, a commercial presence in more than 70 countries, sales in over 180 countries, and more than 33,000 employees.
HPM is sold to the French-
B
owned Legrand Group for the first time. However, the then foreign minister, Paul Keating, vetoes the sale. He declares it is in Australia’s best interest to keep HPM Australian. Legrand purchases BTicino – Italy’s number one manufacturer of electrical accessories. Growth by acquisition is one of Legrand’s key strategies.
1980s
1990s
2010 Arteor is launched: the single largest range of its kind in Australia and New Zealand.
2007
HPM wins multiple design awards for new products developed by its Sydney based engineering team: the fanlight, an exhaust fan and ceiling light combined in one unit; the Cat 90 plug, a re-wireable plug top, and the super dimmer. Legrand purchases Australian emergency lighting manufacturer, Minitronics
2011 The next generation of the iconic HPM range, Excel Life, is launched under the Legrand brand, becoming an instant success. 2012 The new HPM Legrand 23,000m2 super site in Prestons, south western Sydney, is opened by Premier Barry O’Farrell, including a manufacturing facility. 2014 The HPM and Legrand USB charging modules make the prestigious list of Good Design Award finalists. Designed in Sydney, the USB charging modules feature 2 x 2.1A charging sockets (since upgraded to 2 x 2.4A). 2017 Ideal Electrical Suppliers and Legrand NZ launch an exciting Livewire promotion to send 50 couples to the Melbourne Cup Party in Ellerslie, Auckland. 4TH SEPT - 30TH OCT 2017 LIVEWIRE 13

SmartVan the smart option AEON ELECTRICAL EMBRACES THE NEW SMART UTE WORDS CHRISTINA WEDGWOOD PHOTOGRAPHY PHIL NOBLE
With the release of the SmartVan ute concept, Rick from Aeon Electrical saw an opportunity to benefit from the business efficiencies provided by the solution. The all black Ranger not only looks stunning, but is practical for everyday electrical projects.
Having first seen the concept at a tradeshow in Napier, Hawkes Bay-based Aeon Electrical are one of our most recent customers to add an Ideal SmartUte to their fleet. Servicing a lot of the North Island means the Aeon Electrical team are often on the road and the new Ford Ranger is the 6th vehicle in the Aeon family. “I’ve had a relationship with Ideal since I started the business eight years ago, and previously when I was working as an electrician, so the trust was already there. A partnership made sense,” Rick adds. Relationships are something Rick and his team know plenty about, having built their business via word of mouth and referrals, with a reputation for doing great work. “The Ideal team put a package together for us and, although we don’t normally lease vehicles, we did our due
diligence on the deal and it all came up positive,” explains Aeon Electrical Director Rick Carson. “Ideal’s buying power beats what we could get, so the pricing is right, and the app that goes along with it is a great idea for keeping an eye on stock levels.” The specially designed Bott racking system effectively utilises the space available in the tray. This keeps tools and materials safe and secure for utmost profesionalism. The SmartVan app provides instant updates on stock levels and allows Rick and his team to manage orders without travelling to a branch. Rick is currently reviewing the option of adding more Smart vehicles to the Aeon fleet – and Ideal are proud to be driving Aeon Electrical towards their goal of being a recognised household name in the Hawkes Bay.

Illumination Defined HOW WE USE COLOUR TEMPERATURE TO AFFECT DIFFERENT SPACES WORDS HAYDIN MARTIN, STEPHEN COLLARD AND ALI MCGRAW PHOTOGRAPHY SOURCED
We’re often asked what the best lamp is for different uses and spaces, especially with the popularity of LEDs, which offer more variations of colour temperature. The most popular options are Warm White, Cool White and Daylight, which are defined by their measure of Kelvins; the higher the number, the whiter the light. They all add a different mood to a space, so let’s take a look at what you might best recommend each lamp for. WARM WHITE Offers between 2700-3500 Kelvins and is perfect for creating a cosy atmosphere in those places where you want to chill out. Its yellow (or sometimes slightly orangey) tone is similar to the colour temperature of traditional incandescent bulbs. Best used in: •
Living room
•
Dining room
• Bedrooms
required, such as over workshop benches. Because Cool White contains more blue light, it makes white surfaces appear cleaner and crisper whereas a warmer toned lamp will make white surfaces appear cream in colour. It all depends on what effect you’re going for. Best used in: • Kitchens
Best used in:
• Bathrooms
• Factories
• Laundries
• Warehouses
•
Office spaces
• Hallways COOL WHITE Emits 4000- 5500 Kelvins, which cast a fresh, clear glow. This lamp complements contemporary and modern décor and it’s also considered to be a more focused light. Cool White contains more blue light and looks brighter to the eye. In this way, it’s more stimulating than relaxing and is useful anywhere fine motor skills are
home, and is rarely used in New Zealand. Typically used where there’s a specfic need for it - for example to enhance a room that has cooler colours or hard reflective surfaces e.g. marble, glass, or chrome. As daylight white is slightly more energy efficient it is commonly used in commercial environments.
DAYLIGHT Lamps emit upwards of 6000 Kelvins and, as the name suggests, create an overcast daylight effect. Daylight lamps are popular in hot climates as they have a subliminal cooling effect. It’s the least common of the three colour temperatures in the

Meet Danielle Morris: designer, creator and lighting lover DANIELLE IN THE SPOTLIGHT WORDS CHRISTINA WEDGWOOD PHOTOGRAPHY BRETT LEES
Exclusive to Ideal, Irish brand Robus Lighting has become somewhat of a household name, representing quality and attention to detail with their range of commercial, residential, and retail light fittings.
Their focus on high performance LEDs, and the integration of new technologies for energy savings and functionality, make the brand a popular choice with Ideal customers. Also somewhat of a household name in the industry is Danielle Morris, Ideal’s National Sales Manager for Robus Lighting. Part of the Ideal family since earlier this year, Danielle has more than 15 years of experience in the industry, and a reputation that precedes her. From studying Art Design and Spatial Design, Danielle developed a passion for lighting and the way that it allows her to be a mix of both creative and technical. Danielle’s career has spanned both the architectural and wholesale sides of the industry, and both the low and high ends of the market. Danielle took her initial foundation in lighting design and built upon that. She’d always wanted to do her own thing, so teamed up with a number of other designers and started doing fitouts. Operating predominantly in the hospitality space, Danielle loved the clients who 42 LIVEWIRE 4TH SEPT - 30TH OCT 2017
wanted to stand out and be a bit different, so she started designing and creating a range of locally-built, custom fittings. One of them – the ‘whisk’ – was exceptionally popular and can still be seen in a number of spaces around town. Describing herself as very tactile, Danielle was self-taught, and hands-on throughout the entire design process. “I was always experimenting with materials – mostly timber veneer, acrylic and small amounts of metal,” Danielle explains. “I built lots at home, but I always made sure that I was in the factory at each stage of the manufacturing process too, learning how things happened. It was important to me that I know the limitations of different materials, so that I could talk to clients and design things that were realistic and able to be built.” While Danielle has largely put her own venture aside so that she can throw her energy into her role with Ideal, and a jewellery range she’s working on with her teenage daughter, she loves that she’s able to bring all the best aspects of her experiences together.
FEATURE
As well as blending the creative and technical, Danielle’s role at Ideal allows her to also bring her businessmindedness to work. “I’m talking to real people, and doing something different, everyday,” Danielle enthuses. “The real potential of the products we sell lies in what you do with it, and I think I’m able to approach things better because I have an understanding of, and experience in, all ends of the industry.”

Lighting remains Danielle’s love and she’s proud of how she’s persevered for close to two decades in a male-dominated industry. “There’s such an honesty to this industry,” Danielle shares, laughing. “I can really be myself here, and I love nothing more than motivating our reps and getting them fired up. I can still be constantly creative and life is always interesting!” Danielle heads up a nationwide team based out of Wellington, Christchurch and Auckland that provide excellent in-house back up service for the quality Robus brand.

Help floods in COMMUNITY SPIRIT AND KIWI KINDNESS COMES TO THE RESCUE WORDS JO BAILEY PHOTOGRAPHY STEVEN BAKER
Following the disaterous floods that hit the town of Edgecumbe in April, when floodwaters broke through a Rangtitaki River stopbank, Ideal was on the ground to offer support.
When kiwifruit packhouse and coolstore operation EastPack held a Fun Day at its Edgecumbe site to raise money for staff badly affected by the floodwaters that swamped the town in April, Ideal was happy to do its bit to help. EastPack site manager, Calum Spankie says his staff and others at the Fun Day were delighted to see Ideal’s Mount Maunganui representative Steve Grunsell turn up with a barbecue trailer in tow along with a mountain of sausages and bread to raise some funds. “With over 200 people on site there were a few mouths to feed. We really appreciated Steve’s time behind the barbecue and all the food provided by Ideal. It was great for staff to see that our suppliers are willing to help out their cause.” EastPack’s Edgecumbe packhouse narrowly escaped the flooding, however around 25 of the 260 staff members working for the firm at the peak of the kiwifruit harvest were badly impacted on a personal level.
“We are still providing emotional support to several staff who will be affected for quite some time. It will be several months before their homes are repaired or rebuilt,” says Calum. Following EastPack’s initial disaster response (ensuring displaced staff were safe and had places to stay) the firm’s eight sites in Northland and Bay of Plenty pulled together to start a company-wide fundraising initiative. All of the $33,000 raised has gone directly to helping affected staff members get back on their feet. Around $600 of this was obtained through the barbecue and a raffle for a remote control helicopter that was also donated by Ideal. EastPack’s EDI Supervisor, Hine Araroa was the lucky winner. Ideal’s Mount Maunganui branch manager, Steve Baker says his team was pleased to help. “It was the least we could do for a very good customer based in a town struck by disaster.”
