Don’t just take our word for it...

Signed up to NECA to gain more industry insights and to stay up dated on standards, regulatory and technical changes, as well as to get access to the very valuable TKB. Having these standards available on my devices, while out on a job, has been invaluable in clarifying requirements of some tricky projects. I am grateful that NECA is on hand to advocate for the industry at a state and federal level, without that support, our needs and expectations, most likely, would never be heard. Starting as a sole-trader, NECA was an invaluable investment. Access to the extensive TKB alone pays for the subscription, however it is the industry network opportunity that is the most important aspect for most contractors in my opinion.

- Xavier, Alpex Electrical

Signing up for NECA membership was the best decision I made for my business. The HSEQ system has made our life so much easier. It not only covers us legally from a documentation perspective but also helps us train our staff. Zendesk provides us the flexibility in accessing all the standards at any time. Support from all staff members is been great and always happy to help. It's worth every single dollar we have invested in it.

- Tarak Shah, Sunrun Solar

We started our business 20 years ago and we have been a member of NECA since the beginning. They have been invaluable over the years as we have often seeked advice from matters ranging from wages and employees, legal obligations, OH&S updates to cable sizing for power requirements. We have always received prompt replies and welcoming advice! Highly recommend any electrical business being a NECA members as we have never felt like we are on our own with the constant changes and regulations that our industry is faced with.

- Damian Fiolet, Director,Fenton Electrical

I have been with NECA since I started my business in 2004, I believe that having the support of NECA has been essential to the growth and everyday function of my business from industry awareness that Neca supply through emails and industry function nights, employee training and the personal support that is provided with Your HESQ , Insurance and being able to speak personally to someone on Technical issues on AS/NZS 3000 . My membership with NECA has been an invaluable tool no less than the hand tools we use to work with everyday.

- Chris Pearce, C & M Pearce Electrical

Our NECA membership has been a key part of our compliance with Health and Safety and well as assisting us in keeping updated with changes in the Electrical Industry. The NECA member portal has been a useful tool for our Technicians and Management to access relevant and up to date information and resources and has also assisted our HR and HSE departments with queries as their arise.
