Summary
US demand for circuit breakers and fuses is
expected to increase 5.5 percent per year to 5.1
billion in 2017. Gains will be supported by
favorable conditions in most of the industries
and sectors that utilize these products. Demand
will be bolstered by strong growth in electricity
generation and ongoing increases in construction
activity by electric utilities. In addition,
circuit breaker and fuse producers will benefit
from solid growth in both residential and
nonresidential building construction. Conditions
in the manufacturing sector will also support
expanding circuit breaker and fuse sales.
Production of machinery, motor vehicles, and
aerospace equipment will increase at improved
rates, and electrical and electronic equipment
manufacturing will rebound from the declines
experienced during the 2007 to 2012 period.
Furthermore, renewed strength in fixed investment
spending will drive additional circuit breaker
and fuse sales.

Residential construction to be fastest growing
market The residential construction market will
post the strongest gains of any market, growing
8.4 percent per year to 290 million in 2017.
This will be a considerable improvement from the
declines registered during the 2007 to 2012
period. Market expansion will be the result of a
major turnaround in residential construction
activity, with 14 percent yearly spending
increases forecast through 2017. The residential
market will continue to be dominated by circuit
breakers, as these products have replaced fuses
in most single unit homes. The electric power
market will remain the largest end-user of
circuit breakers and fuses through 2017.

This was the fastest rising market during the
2007 to 2012 period, aided by increases in
utility construction spending, and healthy gains
are forecast to continue through 2017. Further
efforts to update the US electrical grid will aid
gains, as will the continued adoption of wind and
solar power. Power circuit breakers to post
strongest gains Circuit breaker sales will
outpace fuse sales through 2017, and power
circuit breakers will post the strongest gains of
any individual product category during that time
period. Demand for power circuit breakers will be
driven by efforts to update the US electrical
grid, as well as by the increasing utilization of
these products by independent power producers and
nonutility generators. Furthermore, technological
advances will support sales of higher value power
circuit breakers.

Domestic shipments to improve from recent
declines Shipments of circuit breakers and fuses
from US manufacturers are forecast to increase
4.7 percent per year to 4.1 billion in 2017.
This will be an improvement from the declines in
shipments posted during the 2007 to 2012 period,
but overall gains will lag demand forecasts.
Growth will be supported by improved conditions
in domestic demand and the reshoring of some
circuit breaker and fuse-using manufacturing
operations. However, manufacturers will continue
to face intense competition from producers in
regions with lower labor costs, particularly at
the lower end of the market. Import growth will
outpace export growth, and the US trade deficit
in these products will expand through 2017.
