The Carolinas Electrical Contractors Association, Inc. (CECA) is an association of businesses which perform electrical construction and who work together to make the industry better. When you join CECA, you secure a business partner dedicated to making yours a better business. When you join CECA, you not only enjoy a host of member benefits, we also use many of your dollars to support the electrical industry as a whole - from governmental lobbying to inspiring young people to join the field. The CECA Code Course has been accredited by the NC Board of Examiners of Electrical Contractors (NCBEEC) since 1989.
When you join CECA, you secure a business partner dedicated to making yours a better business. Many years ago, a few contractors decided there were some things they could do better and less expensively if they joined forces. One contracting business speaking before the local government was ineffective -several voices were heard. One electrical contracting business attempting to change a law was ineffective - several electrical contractors had the law passed. One electrical business, unable to solve the problem of union encroachment joined several other businesses splitting the cost and presenting a collective voice, slowed this movement.
Our mission, as an association, is to assist and promote the collective interests of the electrical contractor. To accomplish this, we will facilitate and coordinate the activities that enhance the electrical industry. We will work with all governmental bodies, agencies, boards, owners, suppliers, and other construction associations in representing the interest of the electrical contractor. We shall provide education, training and communications which will increase the technical skills of electrical contractors.
