About this Event
Join members of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers for an exclusive, executive-led tour of TESCO Metering, guided by President & CEO Tom Lawton.Explore how precision electrical metering products are engineered and produced for the utility industry. This visit will highlight practical applications of mechanical engineering principles in precision instrumentation and regulated industrial manufacturing.For more than a century, TESCO has supported the electric utility industry with precision metering and testing solutions. Today, the company is building on that legacy as a domestic manufacturing leader—investing in expanded production capacity, advanced calibration capabilities, and engineering-driven innovation to support grid modernization, electrification, and infrastructure resilience.As utilities face increasing demands for reliability, accuracy, and security, TESCO is strengthening U.S.-based manufacturing to ensure supply chain stability and technical excellence.During the tour, attendees will experience:
- The history and legacy of TESCO
- High-accuracy current transformer (CT) testing and calibration processes
- Controlled testing environments ensuring precision and repeatability
- Integrated engineering and production operations
- Process driven manufacturing capability
- Lean manufacturing systems designed for scalable growth
- Investments supporting reshoring and long-term grid resilience
Tom Lawton will provide strategic insight into how TESCO combines legacy expertise with forward-looking investment—positioning the company to support the next generation of utility infrastructure while reinforcing domestic manufacturing strength.This tour offers ASME members a firsthand look at how mechanical engineering principles drive precision instrumentation, operational excellence, and sustainable industrial growth in a rapidly evolving energy landscape.
The tour is limited to 30 participants. Registration via Eventbrite is required. Secure your spot today!
