EFC Electric Vehicle Chargers Product Section Holds First Meeting
Feb 21, 2020
EFC’s exciting new product section on Electric Vehicle Systems conducted its first face-to-face meeting in February.
Many topics of interest and importance were discussed as to determine the scope of this section. Members were updated on the numerous CSA Group, UL, SAE and IEC standards under development. These standards are important for manufacturers to be aware of as changes will influence how we go to market. Manufacturers are encouraged to participate in the development of these standards either as an individual manufacturer or with EFC’s collective representation.
If you’re interested in bringing your voice to the EV space EFC welcomes you to attend the next meeting on April 14th in Toronto. Please contact Gurvinder Chopragchopra@electrofed.com or Robert McIntrye atrmcintyre@electrofed.com

Many contractors prefer to deal with the people that they know, in their local branch. When doing a job out of town, it’s often inconvenient or simply impossible to return to your home branch to pick up material orders for the next day, within standard business hours.
Westburne’s new locker solution extends the branch’s pick up times to 24 hours, 7 days a week.
