Lineage Power Corporation · Mesquite, TX United States

Lineage Power has a long history of wielding power. The company was formed in late 2007 when The Gores Group, the equity buyout firm, bought the Power Systems business of Tyco Electronics. Lineage Power markets converters, filter modules, inverters, power bays and cabinets, power supplies, and rectifiers for electrical power conversion equipment. The company's heritage stretches back some eight decades to Western Electric, the manufacturing arm of the old AT&T, and continued through the breakup of "Ma Bell," the creation and spinoff of Lucent Technologies, and Tyco's purchase of the business in 2000. To read the full description, subscribe now.
