Risk analysis of electrical installations Prevent electrical accidents

Since 2012, as an employer, you are obliged to have a risk analysis carried out for every electrical installation in the company buildings to which personnel have access.

This applies to low-voltage and high-voltage installations. A Risk Analysis of Electrical Installations is also a mandatory document in the technical file of your electrical installation.

A risk analysis of an electrical installation provides you with an overview of potentially dangerous points in your installation. This way, you immediately know how to make your installation even safer.

In the event of an industrial accident, these documents are requested for inspection.

Legally required or not?

Certainly. A risk analysis of the electrical installations is mandatory and of vital importance.
