Jean-Pascal Tricoire, Chairman of the Management Board and CEO of Schneider Electric (SE) has announced that effective March 1, 2009, Hal Grant assumed the position of CEO for Custom Sensors & Technologies (CST), headquartered in Moorpark, California.

Hal joined Schneider Electric in 1985. His assignment prior to his appointment as CEO for CST was managing the Global Supply Chain functions for Schneider Electric.
