As part of its Global Mission, NEMA opened its regional office in Mexico City to facilitate members’ efforts to gain and maintain market access in Mexico and Latin America.

Objectives:Technical product Standards and installation codes that ensure that products made in Mexico and the U.S. can safely be used by customers in both countries.

• Conformity assessment processes that treat all manufacturers in a fair and equal manner.
• Inspection of all electrical installations to ensure compliance with NOM-001-SEDE requirements.
• A trade environment that ensures equivalent, competitive access to markets through the elimination of barriers to trade.

Activities:

• Collaborate with CANAME according to the Memorandum of Understanding signed in November 2022, which outlines collaborative activities in the area of Codes and Standards, trade facilitation, and market-related matters.
• Work with ANCE staff and other SDOs and their technical committees to ensure that the proper processes are used to develop Standards that meet the needs of customers in Mexico and the U.S.
• Organize and conduct technical seminars to provide information on a regular basis about NEMA members’ products.
