Richmond Hill, ON -- E-T-A Circuit Breakers has announced that it will distribute AK Teck electric vehicle connectors in Canada.
AK Teck has been manufacturing electrical components and systems for commercial vehicles in Germany since 1918.

"Since E-T-A has substantial business in the transportation sector it has established a strong strategic partnership with AK Teck in Germany," explained Bob Ashmore, managing director for E-T-A Canada.

"It therefore makes a lot of sense for E-T-A to distribute this impressive line of high quality German made connectors and terminal blocks in Canada."
