From March 31, 2020, to June 30, 2021, nVent Electric PLC's inventory turnover remained relatively stable, ranging between 5.23 and 5.36. This suggests that the company was efficiently managing its inventory during this period.

However, from June 30, 2021, to June 30, 2023, there was a decline in the inventory turnover ratio, dropping from 4.88 to 3.82. This may indicate potential issues with inventory management or slower sales during this period.

In the later periods, from September 30, 2023, to December 31, 2024, the inventory turnover ratio started to improve, reaching 5.49 by September 30, 2024. This indicates that the company may have made adjustments to its inventory management practices to improve efficiency.

It would be important for the company to further analyze the reasons behind the fluctuations and take necessary steps to maintain optimal inventory turnover levels.
