ECA Membership

The Electrical Contractors' Association (ECA) was founded in 1901. Its member firms range from local employers with only a few employees to national multi-service companies with many branches employing thousands of personnel - many operating worldwide. ECA members employ over 30,000 people and support 8,000 apprentices in their craft training. They dominate this sector in the UK with a collective annual turnover approaching £3 billions per annum. From plugs to power stations, from fibre optics to factories, the ECA represents the best in all sectors of the industry.

The ECA has a number of subsidiary companies involved in such areas as insurance, property management, quality assurance and training together with an employment agency to support and assist its members' activities and interests.

It assists and encourages its members to provide high quality, good value and safe electrical installation work.
