National Electric Construction Co
of Queen Annes Chambers, London
1897 The National Electric Free Wiring Company was registered on 16 July, for the purpose of carrying out the wiring and fitting of premises for the electric light in consideration of an annual payment without upfront payment; the directors were 3 directors of London electricity supply companies, a general manager and Professor J. S. Swan; they had contracts with 4 of the London companies and municipal electricity undertakings in London and elsewhere[1]
1903 The name was changed to the National Electric Construction Co. [2]
1912 Parliamentary bill promoted by National Electric Construction Co covered agreements with a number of districts[3]. But the annual meeting was told that it had proved impossible to arrange financing even though the company had 2 tramway schemes which it was judged would be profitable. L. B. Schlesinger, chairman, blamed the attitude of local authorities[4].
1930 Offer made for the company - managing director recommended to shareholders not to part with their shares until further communication[5]. No further results found so presumably were taken over.
