The Technical Qualification, Specifications, and Certification Center (GCA) was established in 1998 as one of the specialized technical arms of the Gaza Electricity Distribution Company, serving as the authoritative technical reference for ensuring the quality and sustainability of electrical network components. Over more than 25 years of accumulated experience, the Center has played a pivotal role in safeguarding the power network, developing its technical specifications, and enhancing its reliability in accordance with best engineering practices.

Today, the Center stands at the forefront of the upcoming reconstruction phase and the transition toward a safer, more reliable, and smarter electrical infrastructure, representing a key strategic pillar in this critical stage.

The Center is driven by a clear vision of leadership as an independent technical reference dedicated to drafting specifications and advancing the quality of electrical industries, in line with the global shift toward smart grids and the enhancement of operational efficiency across distribution networks.

The Center adopts an advanced digital inspection and auditing system based on internationally recognized standards and best practices issued by reference bodies such as IEC, IEEE, and ISO. This ensures that all electrical materials and components—ranging from infrastructure elements to end-user devices—fully comply with the highest requirements of safety, reliability, and operational interoperability.

The Gaza Certification of Approval (GCA) service serves as the official technical gateway to market access, constituting a mandatory requirement for participation in the Company's tenders and projects. It provides suppliers and manufacturers with a genuine competitive advantage through formal product certification, while strengthening the confidence of implementing entities and end users alike. The service also plays a vital role in protecting the electrical network from technical risks by preventing the introduction of non-compliant components that could compromise system stability or sustainability.

The Center does not merely offer technical certification; it establishes long-term professional partnerships founded on transparency, compliance with specifications, and sustainable development. It stands as a convergence point for quality, innovation, and reconstruction requirements, and as a trusted gateway toward building a modern electrical network that meets present needs and anticipates future demands.
