During the third quarter of 2022, a series of initiatives were launched to streamline our operational footprint. In a project completed during the fourth quarter of 2023, two of our Magnetic Solutions manufacturing facilities in Zhongshan and Pingguo, China, were largely consolidated into a single centralized site in the Binyang county of Southwestern China (the new Bel Guangxi facility). Further, during 2023, we completed the transition out of our Tempe, Arizona and Sudbury, UK facilities (both within our Connectivity Solutions segment) into other existing Bel sites. Our Connectivity Solutions Melbourne, Florida site also transitioned its manufacturing operations into our existing site in Waseca, Minnesota during 2023. The $10.1 million of restructuring charges incurred the year ended December 31, 2023, and the accrued restructuring costs of $5.5 million at December 31, 2023, are associated with these collective initiatives. The 2024 charges and ending liability balance at December 31, 2024 noted above for severance costs largely relate to an initiative within our Power segment related to the transition of our fuse operations to other existing sites and also within our Connectivity segment related to the transition of certain manufacturing from our Glen Rock, Pennsylvania facility to other existing Bel sites. The new charges noted above for other restructuring costs relate to housing and social insurance costs associated with our fuse restructuring initiative within our Power segment. The balances in other restructuring costs in the table above as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024 largely related to remaining liabilities associated with the Company's aforementioned facility consolidation project in the PRC.
