Certification according to NEN 3140

NEN 3140 is a Dutch standard for working safely on and with electrical installations and equipment in the low-voltage category. This standard is mandatory for employers who are responsible for the safe use of installations within their organization.

The standard sets requirements for:

• The safe condition of electrical installations
• Periodic testing and inspection
• The competence of personnel
• The maintenance and management of electrical systems

By complying with NEN 3140, you prevent accidents, liability risks, and downtime in your processes.

An NEN 3140 inspection is mandatory for organizations that operate electrical installations. The inspection determines whether the installation can be used safely and provides insight into possible defects or risks.

At Technotron we check, among other things:

• Thermal irregularities via thermographic inspection
• Leakage currents or earth faults
• Wear or damage to components
• Compliance with standards such as SCIOS Scope 8 & SCIOS Scope 10

Afterwards you will receive a detailed report and practical recommendations.

A periodic NEN 3140 inspection is essential to ensure continuous compliance with legal requirements and safety standards. Depending on the usage conditions, we recommend inspection intervals of 1 to 5 years.

The advantages of an inspection by Technotron:

• Experienced inspectors with up-to-date knowledge of NEN standards
• Use of advanced measuring and analysis equipment
• Clear reports with well-structured findings
• Directly applicable advice for maintenance or adjustments

After each inspection you will receive an official NEN 3140 certificate from Technotron. This document proves that your electrical installation has been declared safe and complies with the standard.

The NEN 3140 certificate is indispensable for:

• Internal and external audits
• Liability issues
• Insurance matters
• Inspections by the Labor Inspectorate

With a certificate from Technotron, you are assured of expert inspection and full compliance.
