Atlanta Electrical Contractors Association

The Atlanta Electrical Contractor Association (AECA) hosted our Annual Safety Day, and it was a huge success! 🔌✨ Safety is at the core of everything we do in the electrical industry. Every day, our contractors work in environments where precision and caution are critical.

At AECA, we’re committed to leading the charge in making our workplaces safer for everyone. Today, we reinforced the importance of safety protocols, shared best practices, and demonstrated cutting-edge safety technologies.

A big thank you to all who attended and our sponsors Milwaukee, Dewalt, Allison Smith, National Safety Apparel, 3M, and SALUS. Thank you for your contribution to making our industry a safer place to work.

We look forward to seeing you tomorrow at AECA’s Safety Day!
