About
Independent Electrical Contractors of Utah (IEC of Utah) is a merit-shop electrical trade association headquartered in Midvale, UT, serving the greater Salt Lake City metro with a core mission of strengthening and educating electrical professionals across the commercial and industrial sectors. For facility managers and property owners evaluating electrical contractors in the West Valley City and Salt Lake Valley region, IEC of Utah represents a vetted network of member contractors equipped to handle the full spectrum of commercial electrical work — from power distribution, switchgear, and panelboard installations to lighting retrofits, low-voltage data infrastructure, EV charging (EVSE) deployment, and backup generator systems. Member contractors operate across a wide range of commercial property types including office buildings, retail centers, industrial facilities, warehouses, educational institutions, and government or institutional campuses throughout the Wasatch Front. IEC of Utah's four-year apprenticeship program produces journeyman electricians trained specifically in commercial and industrial electrical systems, ensuring that member contractors can field highly skilled crews capable of meeting NEC code compliance requirements on complex, multi-phase commercial projects. The association also offers journeyman prep programs and continuing education, meaning the electricians coming out of this pipeline are current on evolving code cycles and commercial installation best practices. For property managers and general contractors sourcing qualified electrical subcontractors in Salt Lake County, IEC of Utah's contractor directory provides direct access to member firms with demonstrated training credentials and a shared commitment to professional standards. The association's Midvale campus operates across two locations on Commerce Park Drive, with classroom and training infrastructure supporting both active apprentices and working journeymen upgrading their skills. Recognized with a Gold award in Best of SLC 2026, IEC of Utah continues to be a trusted resource for connecting commercial clients with qualified, merit-shop electrical contractors across Utah's growing commercial construction market.
