As a former student at Northwest Lineman College and a former employee of Southern California Edison, I’ve experienced firsthand the critical role that safety eyewear plays in our industry. Working in electrical construction, I quickly realized that standard safety glasses often fall short—they may provide protection, but they lack the comfort, durability, and style that linemen need for long hours on the job. That’s why I started this company: to create safety sunglasses that not only meet industry standards but also enhance performance and comfort for those who rely on them every day.
Linemen face harsh conditions, from blinding sunlight to flying debris and sudden impact hazards. Traditional safety glasses can be bulky, uncomfortable, or even obstruct vision, leading to fatigue and reduced efficiency. Our industry deserves eyewear that goes beyond basic protection—glasses that offer:
• High-impact resistance to shield against unexpected hazards.
• Advanced lens technology for clarity in all lighting conditions.
• Lightweight, comfortable frames designed for all-day wear.
• Stylish yet functional designs that professionals are proud to wear.
My mission is simple: to design safety sunglasses to perfection, tailored specifically for linemen. Every frame, lens, and material is chosen with the unique demands of electrical construction in mind. By blending innovation with real-world experience, I’ve created eyewear that doesn’t just protect—it enhances performance and confidence on the job.
Safety should never be compromised for comfort or style, and with the right eyewear, linemen can have all three. As our industry continues to evolve, so should our protective gear. That’s why I remain committed to delivering high-quality safety sunglasses built for the people who keep our world running.

CHICAGO, March 13, 2025 – S&C Electric Company, a leading innovator of resilient grid technology, announced today a combined solution featuring S&C’s EdgeRestore System and Ubicquia’s UbiGrid DTM+. This integrated package allows utilities to add communications and leverage analytics as they deploy S&C’s EdgeRestore system.
Combining EdgeRestore System’s intelligence and automation with the grid visibility of UbiGrid DTM+ allows utilities to monitor critical restoration operations and other device statuses, providing greater situational awareness and predictive analytics for enhanced system reliability and more efficient fault responses.
“S&C continues to drive intelligence and action for resilient power distribution by integrating cost-effective visibility and communication solutions into our portfolio. Situational awareness and actionable information help customers improve reliability, reduce outages, and optimize operations,” said Joseph Matamoros, Chief Product Development Officer of S&C Electric Company. “S&C’s approach allows customers to add visibility where needed through a simple integration between UbiGrid DTM+ and EdgeRestore.”
Delivering Underground Grid Resilience
S&C’s EdgeRestore system is a first-in-the-world solution that modernizes the last mile of underground power distribution. When a fault occurs on an underground residential loop, the EdgeRestore system automatically locates and isolates the fault and reroutes power from an alternate source—all within 60 seconds. When paired with Ubicquia’s UbiGrid® DTM+, which independently monitors the underground network to provide fault information and device health status, the solution delivers utilities 24/7 visibility and communication flexibility for monitoring, reporting, analyzing, and responding to faults on underground distribution circuits.
"This collaboration with S&C is a game-changer for underground circuits. This bundled solution delivers insights beyond algorithms, incorporating extensive field testing and collaboration with storm response and asset management experts,” said Dave Herlong, Chief Operating Officer of Ubicquia. “By integrating real-world expertise, we enhance operational efficiency and service reliability, empowering utilities and municipalities to respond swiftly to emergencies, minimize storm impacts, and reduce outage durations.”
