History

Southern Electric Corporation of Mississippi (SEC) was founded in 1985 as a 3-man start-up working out of a backyard tool shed.  For the first few years after inception SEC primarily served commercial and residential electrical construction needs in Mississippi.  In the early 1990’s SEC began to move into the overhead and underground high voltage utility market.  Since that time SEC has progressively expanded its operations and work footprint to provide these services along with extensive storm damage power restoration services to a wide range of power providers over a large area of the US. 

SEC’s commitment to safety has been the cornerstone for employee development and customer satisfaction that continues to pave the way for additional growth.  Our professional staff of highly trained and highly skilled team members are constantly developing innovative processes utilizing human performance tools and techniques that allow us to regularly exceed our customer’s expectations.
