Dow Wire & Cable, a business unit of The Dow Chemical Company, will be participating in the IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution Conference and Exposition, April 19-22, 2010 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, LA. The company will use this venue to present a seminar on its enhanced TR-XLPE medium voltage (MV) system.

Transmission and Distribution professionals can visit Dow Wire & Cable at Booth # 501 and are encouraged to attend the seminar “Next-generation DOW ENDURANCE™ Medium Voltage System,” on Thursday April 22 at 11:00 a.m., Room 267 at the convention center.
