Our Mission

To establish a national standard for restaurant electrical emergency readiness that improves safety, reduces shutdowns, and supports inspection success—without replacing licensed electrical professionals or regulatory authorities.

"REA Authority Certification verifies that a restaurant location maintains ongoing electrical emergency readiness through documented standards, annual review, and continued oversight by the Restaurant Electrical Authority."

**Certification is non-regulatory, time-limited, does not replace required inspections, and may be suspended or

revoked if standards are not maintained. REA does not guarantee inspection success or code compliance.**

WHO WE ARE

Scope of Program:

REA’s scope includes educational guidance related to restaurant electrical emergency readiness, development and administration of non-regulatory readiness standards, certification programs based on documented adherence to published standards, training materials for restaurant managers and operators, and certification review, renewal, and status verification.

What REA Does Not Provide:

REA does not provide electrical installation, repair, or maintenance services; electrical inspections or code enforcement; regulatory or Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) functions; engineering approvals or design services; or guarantees of inspection outcomes or compliance results.

Relationship to Certification:

REA certification indicates that a restaurant has received education and implemented readiness procedures aligned with REA standards at the time of review.
