Inspection Body

 

The Inspection Body Type “C” was set up in the year 2000 and possesses Certificate of Accreditation, acc. BDS ЕN ISO/IEC 17020:2012 issued by the Executive Agency of the Bulgarian Accreditation Service.
The Inspection Body uses well-equipped stationary and mobile test stations. It issues Inspection Certificates for services related to: inspection and control of electrical switchgear equipment, cable line marking, localization and elimination of cable failures, test of protective dielectric equipment and materials, earth-loop impedance and resistance of grounding systems, etc.
