IAEI is: Information, Education and Representation
Since its founding in 1928, the
International
Association of Electrical Inspectors has provided
electrical inspectors with information, education, and
representation. Today, IAEI still does these things, but in
ways our founders couldn't possibly have imagined. This
is...Today's IAEI.
