Who attends the EIC?

Many of the attendees at the EIC are manufacturers of high voltage equipment, such as insulators, power cables, instrument transformers, power transformers, switchgear, motors and generators. These manufacturers need to meet the suppliers and producers of electrical insulating materials and insulation test equipment and instrumentation. In addition, a significant percentage of EIC attendees are from high voltage equipment operators, such as electric utilities, and industries such as pulp and paper mills and petrochemical plants. These end-users need to know about insulating materials for repairs, test equipment and diagnostic instrumentation for condition-based maintenance as well as the services of insulation system test providers. The typical attendee at the EIC usually has the authority to specify vendors.

Who are the EIC Sponsors?

Since the first EIC in 1958, the EIC has been jointly sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA). The IEEE is the world’s largest technical society with over 360,000 members. NEMA represents the interests of most of the principal electrical equipment manufacturers and related material suppliers in the USA.

 

The 30th Electrical Insulation Conference will be held for the first time in Annapolis MD, USA in June 2011 at the Loews Annapolis Hotel. The EIC is the world’s premiere applied electrical insulation conference. In addition to the extensive technical program, there is an associated exhibition for suppliers of electrical insulating materials, electrical test equipment, instrumentation and sensors, as well as exhibits by insulation test providers.
