ELECTRI International’s 2024 Research Projects

February 7, 2024

At its recent meeting, the ELECTRI Council reviewed research proposals for projects recommended by the Program Review Committee as essential to the electrical construction industry. After discussions on the merits and methodologies for each project, the Council voted to accept six new research and education initiatives for 2024.

ELECTRI provides each researcher with a Task Force of industry leaders. Please consider volunteering to serve on one of the Task Forces for the 2024 research portfolio. Task force members are asked to attend monthly meetings with the researcher and to offer their EC expertise for the research.
