The Electrical Contractors’ Association is fortunate to have so many active members who volunteer their time and resources to enrich not only this Association, but an entire industry. The following lists (primarily from 2019 data) a few examples of members’ efforts with NECA. Not being able to list all of our members’ industry affiliations / accomplishments, we wish to thank them all for their continued endeavors to better their communities and this industry. The ECA thanks all who are serving with these groups, previous NECA Award recipients, the current ECA Committees, joint labor management trusts / committees, Executive Committee, ECA members-at-large, as well as all who have served in the past.
