What RG Industries does
RG Industries operates as Electrical Now, LLC, a U.S.-based specialty distributor and reconditioner of electrical power distribution components for commercial and industrial customers. The company sells new, re-qualified, and obsolete/out-of-production products — including molded case and insulated case circuit breakers, bus plugs, switchboards, transformers, motor control centers, and fusible panel board switches — sourced from major manufacturers such as ABB/General Electric, EATON/Cutler-Hammer/Westinghouse, Siemens/ITE, and Square-D. It also stocks Aleo Lighting LED products through a distribution partnership and performs custom UL891-certified switchboard manufacturing up to 4,000 amps and 600 volts.
The company's operations are anchored by more than 1,000,000 square feet of inventory across five regional warehouses in Jacksonville FL, Santa Fe Springs CA, Jackson MI, Forney TX, and Wheat Ridge CO, supporting next-day delivery nationwide. Technical differentiation comes from PEARL (Professional Electrical Apparatus Reconditioning League) certification, up to 25 re-qualification procedures per circuit breaker, advanced testing equipment (Phenix HC-30, ETI PI-2500, Megger, DLRO), and a 24/7 emergency service with a 30-minute callback guarantee. Additional service offerings include Virtual On-Site Identification — where expert staff remotely identify outdated or damaged electrical equipment — and custom switchboard proposal turnaround of 48-72 hours.
Revenue mechanics are quote-based B2B sales with cash-before-shipment terms, no publicly disclosed pricing, and no digital self-serve channel. The go-to-market is direct sales via phone (1-800-942-7561) and email ([email protected]), targeting contractors and facility managers in commercial/industrial construction, industrial plant reactivations, and emergency facility repairs. The company is a private LLC with no disclosed ownership, funding history, or headcount data.

RG Industries competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Siemens: Global manufacturer of low- and medium-voltage switchgear, ITE/Siemens breakers, and motor controls. Competes with Electrical Now on new-equipment sales and increasingly on migration kits that bypass legacy parts demand.
- ABB: Manufacturer of low- and medium-voltage switchgear, breakers, and power distribution equipment including the legacy GE/ABB product lines Electrical Now sells. Competes in both new equipment and modernization replacements.
- Eaton: Major OEM of switchgear, circuit breakers, transformers, and motor controls. Many of the products Electrical Now distributes (Cutler Hammer/Westinghouse) are Eaton brands, making Eaton both a supplier and a competitor on new-equipment sales.
- W.W. Grainger: Broadline industrial MRO distributor with a significant electrical category including breakers, transformers, and motor controls. While much wider in scope than Electrical Now, it competes for the same contractor/facility buyer on convenience and availability.
- Schneider Electric / Square D: Manufacturer of Square D breakers, switchboards, and motor controls — a major brand carried by Electrical Now. Competes directly on new-equipment proposals while also driving obsolescence of older Square D lines.
Direct peers
- Rexel USA: One of the largest electrical distribution companies in the US, serving contractors and industrial customers with switchgear, breakers, lighting, and related products across a national branch network. Directly comparable to Electrical Now in product mix and customer base, but with significantly broader scale and digital tooling.
- Consolidated Electrical Distributors (CED): US-focused electrical distributor supplying contractors, industrial, and commercial customers with breakers, switchboards, transformers, and lighting. Comparable product mix and customer profile to Electrical Now, with a larger branch network.
- Border States Electric: Employee-owned electrical distributor focused on utility, commercial, and industrial customers with switchgear, power distribution, and lighting products. Comparable in serving contractors and facility managers with technical electrical distribution offerings.
Others
- PEARL (Professional Electrical Apparatus Reconditioning League): Industry association that sets reconditioning standards and certifies members. Electrical Now holds PEARL certification; competing reconditioners and distributors also operate under PEARL, making it an ecosystem-level comparable for the reconditioning business.
Regional players
- Independent Electric Supply: Regional independent electrical distributor in the western US serving contractors with switchgear, lighting, and controls. Overlaps with Electrical Now in product mix and contractor focus but with a more limited geographic footprint.
