Where Hubbell Began
Hubbell Incorporated was founded in 1888 by American inventor and entrepreneur, Harvey Hubbell II, who seized on the opportunities created by the commercial availability of electric power and the advent of the lightbulb. His pioneering patents like the “pull chain lamp socket” and “separable plug and receptacle” dramatically changed the way people lived and worked, catapulting Hubbell into an era of innovation, creating never seen before products and solutions for a rapidly growing customer base.
