About Us
As an integral part of the IEEE Rural Electric Power Committee, our NESC, Job Training, and Safety Subcommittee focuses on the National Electrical Safety Code (NESC), job training initiatives, and safety standards specific to rural electrification. We strive to create a framework that ensures the highest level of safety while promoting continuous learning and development within the industry.
Key Areas of Focus
- National Electrical Safety Code (NESC):
- Implementation of NESC standards for rural electric power systems.
- Develop Interpretation Requests (IR’s) for the IEEE NESC Standards Committee when needed.
- Collaborate on Change Proposals (CP’s) and revisions sent to the IEEE NESC Standards Committee, to address the evolving needs of the industry.
- Job Training Initiatives:
- Develop and promote job training programs tailored to the unique challenges of the rural power sector.
- Provide resources and support for professionals seeking to enhance their skills and knowledge.
- Safety Standards:
- Establish and uphold safety standards that prioritize the well-being of workers and the community.
- Collaborate with industry stakeholders to address emerging safety concerns and implement best practices.
Mission
Our mission is to champion safety, promote adherence to the NESC, and facilitate job training initiatives that empower professionals within the rural electric power sector. We are dedicated to creating a culture of safety consciousness and continuous learning.
Vision
We envision a future where safety is paramount, the NESC is rigorously followed, and job training opportunities abound. Through our efforts, we aim to foster a community of professionals who are well-equipped to address the challenges of rural electrification.
