Abstract: This paper aims to identify the impact of knowledge process on innovation in Malaysian electrical and electronics firms. This paper employed a quantitative approach, the respondents of this study consist of managers from electrical and electronics firms across Malaysian states. Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS 22.0) was used along with the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS SEM3.0) as the statistical instruments. The results obtained have confirmed that knowledge application is significant to innovation. However, acquisition, conversion and protection are not significant to innovation. The study was limited to electrical and electronics firms. Future research could aim to investigate the situation in other manufacturing sectors in Malaysia because innovation is very important to firms and it would lead to new products and services specially, when high technology products are involved.

Keywords: Knowledge Process, Innovation, Electrical and electronics Firms.
