Whether high-voltage power transmission or low-voltage lighting, electrical contractors ensure these systems work in a safe, effective, and environmentally-sound manner. NECA represents a diverse group of nearly 4,000 member companies account for approximately 300 million manhours per year. They are comprised of electrical contractors from firms of all sizes performing a range of services. While most NECA contractors qualify as small businesses, many large, multinational companies are also members of the association. Organization NECA’s national office in Washington, D.C., four regional offices, and 118 local chapters across the country work to advance the electrical contracting industry through advocacy, education, research, and standards development. NECA chapters are independently chartered organizations who work with national field representatives to develop effective labor agreements and market initiatives.
