What EKTDG Corp. does

ETD Electrical Trade Development Corp. is a privately held Canadian manufacturer that designs, produces, and packages non-metallic electrical fittings — specifically snap-in connectors, knockout fillers, and stud bushings — for the North American electrical trade. The company is headquartered at #17 – 7449 Hume Ave., Delta, British Columbia, where it manufactures its products from GE Plastic Noryl engineering polymer with US-sourced raw materials, and maintains a US office presence in Point Roberts, Washington. Its core product families include the RC 50 and RC 75 non-metallic connectors (sized for 14/2 through 6/3 wire gauges), the patented 2W RC 50 two-way connector that installs from either side of the electrical box, a knockout filler line spanning 1/2" to 2" openings (ETD 50 through ETD 200, plus the ETD 1000 assorted pack), and patent-pending round and square stud bushings. All SKUs carry UL and CSA certification with V0 flame rating and are engineered for tool-free, two-second installation.

The company's value proposition centers on labor-time compression for electrical contractors: the snap-in design removes tool requirements and enables installation in confined areas such as downlights, panels close to studs, and high ceilings, with a 60 lb pull-test rating. The 2W RC 50 connector is positioned as covering approximately 85% of 1/2" applications and serving both new construction and remodel use cases, a feature ETD indicates is unique in the market.

ETD operates a direct sales model with no published pricing, no ecommerce channel, and no disclosed distributor or retail partnerships; orders are taken by phone (604-940-2023) or email ([email protected]) and shipped directly from the Canadian facility. The customer base consists of electrical contractors and tradespeople across residential and commercial use cases (load centers, sub feeds, ranges, ovens, downlights, strip lights, exhaust fans). Revenue, headcount, ownership structure, and funding history are not publicly disclosed, and the company has no disclosed parent, subsidiaries, M&A activity, or institutional investment signals in the available data.
