National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) is a professional trade association that has been serving the management and educational needs of electrical contractors since 1901. The Quad Cities Chapter of NECA, representing contractors in western Illinois and eastern Iowa since 1930, offers a range of high-quality electrical and communications services. With a highly trained union workforce and state-of-the-art management tools, NECA members provide unmatched installations, productivity, timely service, and cost effectiveness.

What sets NECA apart is their commitment to quality workmanship. Due to binding arbitration in all labor agreements, customers can be assured of the expertise and reliability of union craft workers without the fear of strikes or labor disputes. NECA members employ the most highly trained electricians and communication workers in the industry, each completing a comprehensive 3-5 year apprenticeship program that combines classroom and on-the-job training.

The Quad Cities Chapter is part of approximately 120 chapters across the country affiliated with NECA, working together to set standards for quality installations. For more information on NECA's services, please visit their website at www. necanet.
