Proposal for self-certification of electrical installations by qualified electricians
Official title: Voorstel van resolutie betreffende de hervorming van het Algemeen Reglement op de Elektrische Installaties (AREI) naar een systeem van eID-gekoppelde zelfcertificatie met onafhankelijk, risicogestuurd toezicht.
Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)
In plain language
- Certified electricians could soon approve new or modified electrical installations themselves using their eID, replacing the mandatory advance inspection by a third party.
- This affects certified installers, inspection bodies, and homeowners or businesses setting up equipment such as solar panels, home batteries, or EV charging stations.
- You might no longer have to wait for an external inspector after electrical works, allowing you to use your new setup more quickly and with less paperwork.
