Cooper Wiring Devices Smart Dimmer Product Wins Platinum 2002 ADEX Award

LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y., February 24, 2003 - A new line of Cooper Wiring Devices (CWD) lighting control dimmer products has just been awarded a Platinum 2002 Award for Design Excellence (ADEX) by "Design Journal", bi-monthly publication for national and regional design professionals. The ADEX program is considered a major and prestigious international design program in the field. Winners are selected by a jury of five independent trade professionals. ADEX award winners will appear in the magazine's April-May issue.

Cooper Wiring Devices' "Smart Dimmer" product line allows light levels to be adjusted at either master or remote locations prior to turning on lights. Featuring a new See-in-the-Dark? light-level setting, the product is considered ideal where pre-setting lighting level is desired.
