Legrand to Acquire Avtron Power Solutions in $350M Growth Deal

Legrand, the global conglomerate in electrical and digital building infrastructure, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Avtron Power Solutions, a Cleveland, Ohio-based leader in load banks and power quality solutions. The acquisition expands Legrand’s footprint in critical power markets, strengthening its position as a key player in infrastructure reliability across data centers, healthcare, renewable energy, and industrial sectors.

Avtron Power Solutions employs approximately 600 people and operates five manufacturing facilities across North America and Europe. The company is projected to generate nearly $350 million in revenue by 2025, backed by what Legrand described as “high profitability.” Its technologies ensure stable and dependable power performance, a growing priority as industries worldwide confront surging demand for resilient, efficient energy systems.

Once completed – pending regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions – the acquisition will position Avtron as a stand-alone business unit within Legrand’s Electrical Wiring Systems Division, led by Ravi Ramanathan. Avtron’s current CEO, David Cox, will continue to lead the company and report directly to Ramanathan, ensuring operational continuity and alignment with Legrand’s long-term growth strategy.

Reliable Power Delivery

“Avtron Power Solutions’ 75-year history of leadership, innovation, and customer focus aligns perfectly with Legrand’s own values,” said Brian DiBella, President and CEO of Legrand North and Central America. “Avtron has built a strong foundation and culture that emphasizes reliability and service. We’re excited to welcome its talented global team to the Legrand community once the deal is finalized.”

Avtron’s acquisition marks another step in Legrand’s ongoing expansion strategy, which focuses on acquiring high-performing, specialized technology providers in fast-growing markets. With increasing global dependence on digital and industrial infrastructure, the acquisition would enhance Legrand’s capacity to deliver critical power assurance solutions to enterprise and hyperscale clients worldwide.

“Legrand has a proven record of acquiring strong businesses like ours and investing in their continued success,” said David Cox. “By joining forces, we’re accelerating Avtron’s technology roadmap and broadening our reach into new market opportunities where reliable power delivery is mission-critical.”

Through this acquisition, Legrand continues to consolidate its leadership in smart, sustainable, and reliable energy infrastructure – further positioning itself at the core of the global digital transformation.
