Electrical Products On Track for 1-2% Increase Through Q2 2023

Despite a 3% increase in the overall electrical parts pricing index for Q1 2023, Q2 results show an easing in pricing that we believe will net down to an overall YTD increase of 1-2% by the end of Q2. The most significant price increases driving the overall index higher were all related to wiring and related products. While building wire and power wire both saw about 6% quarterly increases, wiring devices and connectors along with metal conduit saw increases of 20% and 14% respectively quarter on quarter. A 10% increase in steel prices coupled with increased backlog of sourcing materials for manufacturers contributed to the conduit spike.
