Eaton named 'Power Quality Company of the Year' by Frost & Sullivan

Date: June 29, 2004

The strategy of the Power Quality Solutions Operations (PQSO) centers on our goal to be the premier supplier of power quality, reliability and management solutions. Our progress toward this goal was confirmed recently when Frost & Sullivan, a worldwide leader in market consulting and intelligence, named Eaton Corporation "Power Quality Company of the Year" for its 2003 contributions to the electric power quality industry.

According to Frost & Sullivan, the Company of the Year award is presented annually to an organization that demonstrates unparalleled excellence in their given industry. Criteria cited for the award include: demonstrated market share growth, successful execution of innovative strategies, new market penetration, heightened customer satisfaction and loyalty, technological innovation, industry leadership and strong brand recognition.

Eaton was specifically recognized for its world-class 24/7 customer service; acquisition of Innovative Technology, solidifying a leadership position in the hard-wire TVSS market; a joint venture with CaterpillarO; and the company's ability to cross-sell and up-sell its complete line of products.

As you visit with customers and channel partners, please promote this award in the marketplace, reinforcing Eaton's commitment to being our customer's best supplier, providing distinctive and highly valued products, services and solutions.
