Seeing a need for reliable electrical work, Russell Carmean, Sr. founded Carmean Electric in 1970, in Springfield, Illinois. This first home served not only Springfield, but all of Central Illinois and quickly became known as a name you could trust. Upon Russell's retirement in 1995, his son, Russ Carmean, took over the family business after going through the apprenticeship and working in the field as a journeyman for 18 years. In 2011, Russ opened a second location here in Harrisburg to be closer to family. Russ is a Union contractor and has served as Chairman of the National Electrical Contractors Association in Springfield and Southern Illinois. He is also a member of the Chamber of Commerce in Harrisburg, Illinois.
