NECA Manual of Labor Units: 2021-2022 Edition
Since 1923, the MLU has been the estimating resource of choice for electrical contractors, providing an experience-based reference for estimating the electrical construction labor required to install typical electrical and communications systems.
The MLU has continuously evolved over its nearly 100-year life and in 2016, we reformatted the Manual to follow the Construction Specification Institute's MasterFormat to better assist electrical contractors with their estimating processes. Read this article understand the reasoning behind that change and the role the construction specifier plays.
Accredited Representatives will receive an email with access instructions for this year's edition within the next two weeks.
