Lieux de travail des électriciens industriels 2013 – 2015

One main reason for some disharmony in electrical product standardization is the existence of national installation codes.  As mentioned earlier, as with standards, historically, every country has their own installation code, which is reflective of that country’s culture and practices.  Canada uses the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, (CEC) published by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The US and Mexico use the National Electrical Code (NEC) published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). These codes are developed by the respective accredited standards development organization, through a consensus based process, that includes participation by the electrical safety authorities in that country. This makes it difficult to move to a single harmonized code for North America. However, there is significant harmonization of the two North American codes along with participation in the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) installation code 

Pour Joris Myny, président du Programme de bourses d’études de l’ÉFC, l’embauche d’étudiants de niveau universitaire et collégial s’avère cruciale pour notre industrie. Le programme de bourses d’études 2014 de l’ÉFC a connu un franc succès et c’est avec beaucoup d’enthousiasme qu’il a décidé de poursuivre son mandat de président en 2015. Cette année, le programme prévoit l’octroi de 52 bourses totalisant un montant de 120 500$.
