Who is CECAPI?

CECAPI serves as the lead voice for the electrical installation industry, covering the full spectrum of equipment for residential and commercial buildings. From the essential hardware that powers our daily lives—such as plugs, sockets, and switches—to critical safety components like circuit breakers and residual current devices, we ensure the backbone of European electrical systems is built on quality and reliability.

We go beyond basic connectivity by championing the next generation of smart building technology. Our scope includes advanced cable management, integrated home and building electronic systems, and modern communication tools like video-intercoms. By uniting these diverse sectors, CECAPI drives the evolution toward a safer, more sustainable, and fully connected European built environment.

At CECAPI, we don’t just represent components; we represent the digital and electrical heartbeat of the European home. Our mission is to ensure that as our buildings become smarter and more sustainable, they remain built on a foundation of safety, innovation, and seamless cooperation.
