• Schneider Electric has won a contract worth more than £2m to supply drives to United Utilities and to conduct harmonic surveys for the company over a two-year period. The contract, covering drives up to 500kW, follows an earlier three-year contract, and carries a two year-extension, with a further one-year option.
