Welcome to IBEW #1003

IBEW Local #1003 was established in 1947 in Nelson, BC. We represent workers in our region in construction, manufacturing and maintenance, as well as employees of Nelson Hydro, the local Utility.

Members of our local have constructed electrical installations ranging from the Hydro-electric dams on the Kootenay, Columbia and Pend’Orielle rivers to the Elk valley’s coal mines.

Primarily an industrial local, we have also built many of the institutional and commercial projects throughout the Kootenay Region, and are also active in residential construction.

Our office is located at 101 Baker St. Nelson B.C. in the Duke Hyslop Labour Center.
