Q. What are the key technological trends that are driving the electrical safety industry?
Electrical safety is a constantly evolving industry that relies on various factors. Considering the availability of infrastructure, awareness programmes and scope of research, a country like India is still learning and adopting better standards of practices in this industry. The major concerns prevailing in electrical safety are attributed to both the manufacturers and consumers.
The manufacturing methods that produce sub-standard quality equipment have a direct influence on the market growth. The compromise on the safety standards puts men and machine at risk. Consumers, on the other hand, opt for these products since they come at a cheaper price. Due to lack of awareness on the importance of electrical safety and its effects, the consumers are prone to safety hazards.
India has a great potential in this industry and it’s the responsibility of both the government and manufacturers to bring innovation into the scenario so as to compete against other countries. The government should promote research-based developments with the help of premier institutions to work alongside the manufacturers.
Q. What is your vision for Galaxy Earthing?
The company aims to become the front face of electrical safety and will constantly strive to bring in newer and innovative technologies into Indian market.
