==Professional societies and international standards organizations== In both the UK and the US, professional societies had long existed for civil and mechanical engineers. The [[Institution of Electrical Engineers]] (IEE) was founded in the UK in 1871, and the [[AIEE]] in the United States in 1884. These societies contributed to the exchange of electrical knowledge and the development of electrical engineering education. On an international level, the [[International Electrotechnical Commission]] (IEC), which was founded in 1906, prepares standards for power engineering, with 20,000 electrotechnical experts from 172 countries developing global specifications based on consensus.
