NEMA Membership Application Form

Corporations, firms, and individuals actively engaged in the manufacture in the United States, Canada or Mexico, for sale in the U.S. open market, of any electrical product within the product scope of one or more product sections of the association are eligible for membership under the terms and conditions described in the NEMA Bylaws.

A company is eligible for membership if it engineers, produces in whole or in part, or effects some substantial physical changes to an electrical product for sale in the U.S. open market and included in the association’s product scope description. Application for membership must be made in writing and must specify at least one product section of the association for which applicant claims eligibility. Upon approval of the membership application by the NEMA Board of Governors, the new member affiliates with the product section(s) specified on the application and may affiliate with other sections for which it claims eligibility in accordance with the NEMA Bylaws.

Companies that do not manufacture in the United States, Mexico, or Canada, may be admitted to membership by the Board of Governors under such rules and regulations as the Board may, from time to time, determine.
