GETTING ON THE BOOKS - VERY IMPORTANT

If you are interested in working in Local 51, GET ON THE BOOKS! All individuals are required to get on the books in person initially and at least once per year thereafter.
If you have met the in-person requirements, you may re-sign online by visiting the IBEW51.org website. The form can be found under the JOBS TAB titled GET ON THE BOOKS.
WIND FARMS
We have a limited amount of work on Wind Farms. No open orders at this time.

Most work is being performed by inside locals including IBEW Local 193, Local 146 and Local 34. Our work is currently very limited to the sub-station work on solar farms.
