NETA is pleased to announce Sabino Electric Inc. as a Qualified Electrical Equipment Maintenance Company (QEMC). The company achieved certification by participating in NETA’s new QEMC and QEMW qualification program, launched in 2024 to respond to new requirements for electrical equipment maintenance based on NFPA 70B–2023®, Standard for Electrical Equipment Maintenance®. The new requirements make proper electrical equipment maintenance mandatory and enforceable. Sabino serves Arizona and the Southwest Region out of its headquarters in Tucson and a branch office in Tempe, Arizona.
“It’s an honor for Sabino Electric to be recognized as a NETA Qualified Electrical Equipment Maintenance Company,” says Bobby Magee, Electrical Technical Account Manager and Support. “Safety has always been a guiding principle for us, and this designation reinforces our commitment to reliable, independent testing. Being part of the NETA network strengthens our ability to support customers across the Southwest with confidence and technical expertise.
“We strive to be the best electrical service provider in our field, achieved through experience, market competitiveness, client responsiveness, and our safety culture. These characteristics translate into trust and excellence to our clients and vendors and have made us the preferred electrical service provider in Arizona for more than forty years.”
“NETA is proud to recognize Sabino Electric as one of NETA’s newest Qualified Electrical Equipment Maintenance Companies (QEMCs),” says Chasen Tedder, NETA QEMC and QEMW Committee Chair. “NETA QEMC-recognized service providers are ensuring their Qualified Electrical Equipment Maintenance Workers (QEMWs) align with new NFPA 70B requirements and lead the way in meeting the growing demand for electrical power system maintenance services.”
