Process to electrical conformity


Compliance is about ensuring the conformity and integrity of the installation to ensure electrical safety.  The path to compliance must be mapped out in such a way that acceptance and control is obtained from all stakeholders.

A customer starts the process of transferring responsibility for electrical installation for a reason. This reason can be an incident, an accident, lack of control, certification, costs, influence of third parties or that no one wants to bear the installation responsibility.

The measures to be taken should include hidden non-conformities as a starting point for the transfer of installation responsibility.  Or why does a company want to transfer installation responsibility. Openness at this stage is essential and should be based on mutual trust.

The image below shows the path to compliance.
