IEC History
IEC was founded in 1957, as the Associated Independent Electrical Contractors of America. The primary goal of the group was to consider and deal by all lawful means with common problems of management, distribution, employment, and financial functions of the electrical construction industry.

In subsequent years, IEC has grown from its original members to become an influential 77 chapter association representing over 3,500 electrical contractors and nearly 70,000 electrical workers. IEC has expanded its alliance to include over 10,000 apprentices who are in the process of learning the processes in becoming prominent and productive electricians.  IEC will continue to expand its services to its members, as well as, being a strong voice for independent electrical contractors on the many issues affecting the industry.
