Have you received a request for a periodic electrical inspection from your grid operator? Do you want to sell a property or have you bought one? Perhaps you are also looking for a competent electricity expert for your electrical installations in your commercial or industrial building?

Then you've come to the right place!

With many years of experience and state-of-the-art measuring equipment, we offer you competent and safe electrical inspections.

 

 

Acceptance inspections NIV 734.27

 

If an installation with a 10-year or shorter inspection period is newly created or modified, it must be inspected by an independent inspection body.

If defects are found, these must be rectified by the installer.

Only then will we sign the safety certificate prepared by the electrical installer.

Properties such as industrial, commercial, service companies or public buildings have inspection periods of less than 20 years.

 

Periodic inspections NIV 734.27

 

The owners of electrical installations are responsible for their safe operation and maintenance in accordance with the Swiss Federal Ordinance on Heavy Current Installations and to ensure this, electrical installations are inspected at periodic intervals.

 

Equipment inspection NEV 734.26

 

Every day you use a variety of electrical equipment for your professional activity or in your household.

Are you aware that the use of defective or faulty electrical equipment, such as drills, toasters, etc., can cause a risk of electric shock or fire? Often dangerous defects in the equipment  are not visible to the eye  and can only be detected by  measurements. By periodically checking electrical equipment, we can reduce the risk of electrical accidents caused by faulty equipment.

 

Employers are obliged by the following legal provisions to keep electrical equipment in proper condition, to check it and to document it:

 

Ordinance on electrical low-voltage products (NEV) 734.26

Federal Law on Accident Insurance (UVG) 832.20

Ordinance on the Prevention of Accidents and Occupational Diseases (VUV) 832.30
