SELECT is the trade association for the electrical contracting industry in Scotland.

Founded in 1900 as The Electrical Contractors' Association of Scotland, SELECT became the first trade association in the world to serve the electrical industry. Leaving aside the ancient trades, that makes SELECT amongst the oldest of the "modern" trade associations.

Today, there are nearly 1,250 Members of SELECT each one working to the organisations’ stringent membership criteria.

SELECT Members have capability across a wide range of design, manufacturing, testing and commissioning skills and each is accredited to one or more of ten technical disciplines.

SELECT Member companies account for the majority of all electrical installation work carried out in Scotland, have a collective turnover of £1 billion and provide employment for over 15,000 people.
