                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


   The Stockholders and The Board of Directors of Edison Control Corporation

   We have audited the statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
   cash flows of Edison Control Corporation for the year ended December 31,
   1995.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
   management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
   financial statements based on our audit.

   We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
   standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
   obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
   free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
   basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
   statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
   used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
   the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit
   provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
   in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of
   Edison Control Corporation for the year ended December 31, 1995, in
   conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

   INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



   To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
     of Edison Control Corporation:


   We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Edison
   Control Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31,
   1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
   shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended and the one-
   month transition period ended January 31, 1996.  These financial
   statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
   responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
   based on our audits.  The financial statements of the Company for the year
   ended December 31, 1995 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated
   February 14, 1996, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
   standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
   obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
   free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
   basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
   statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
   used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
   the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits
   provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
   all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January
   31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash
   flows for the years then ended and the one-month transition period ended
   January 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
   principles.
