The ABA is an organization dedicated to advocating, advancing and safeguarding the use of bimetals.  Through education and monitoring of industry-wide standards, the ABA provides a platform that allows bimetallic solutions to develop and reach the market.

The ABA currently participates in the Codes & Standards-making process through its representation on NEC Code-Making Panel 6, as well as the conductor committee at ASTM.  The ABA also holds several seats on Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standards Technical Panels.  UL is the standards-making organization that maintains product safety standards for electrical conductors.
