Your Trusted Electrical Contractors
About Us
The Metropolitan Electrical Contractors Association (MECA) was established on November 1, 2022, by contractors who know the demands of the electrical industry firsthand. Being run by electrical contractors gives us a unique insight into the challenges and opportunities our members face. We proudly partner with Local 363 USWU, reinforcing our commitment to serving the workforce and promoting the highest standards in the field.

MECA also partners with Apex Technical School and operates a Group Sponsored Apprenticeship program recognized by the New York State Department of Labor (NYS DOL). This allows us to offer top-tier training for the next generation of electricians, ensuring they are equipped with the skills and certifications necessary to meet today’s market demands.

Through our strong industry relationships and focus on member success, MECA serves as a resource for professional development, networking, and advocacy. Whether it’s finding skilled electricians, accessing training opportunities, or navigating industry regulations, MECA stands proudly with our members to promote growth and excellence in the electrical industry.
