Electrical Installation in Single-Family Homes: Qualifications, SEP & Company Requirements

Question

Hello
What qualifications do you need to have to set up an electrical installation in a single-family house, you need to have your own company or not, SEP - is it enough? Of course, that this installation would be picked up by the supervision later.

apistograma · Answer

SEP permissions up to 1kV but for INSTALLATION of the installation. After the installation is done, you need to take measurements. If you have permissions for measurements, you can do it yourself, if not, you can outsource it to someone authorized.

ekaand · Answer

You do not need any permissions to install the installation at home. To receive the supervision, the measurements must be signed by a person with permissions for measurements and building permits.

none? and something seems to me that you are not right

Enpro · Answer

For pick-up at the ZE, you need a declaration of an authorized person for the performance, you can do it yourself, and you can be raised and checked by such a person, and measurements of the effectiveness of zeroing and insulation resistance measurement issued by a licensed person, otherwise you will not change from the building tariff to the target tariff in the ZE. To collect the building, you need a paper from the power supply about the acceptance of the connection to the building, measurements and an entry in the building supervision inspector's book.

Gentlemen. 1 Project. (permissions) 2 Notification in the energy company 3 execution. (Permissions for assembly and measurements) 4 Pick-up (by ZE).

ekaand · Answer

The key issue is whether it should be a house installation or a connection? If only at home, i.e. behind the counter, then as I wrote above.
Nobody answers such an installation, needless to say, that in order to do a correct and safe installation, you need to have the appropriate knowledge.

ImPuLs · Answer

It is as it says 'ekaand'.
Well, unless you come across such receivers from ZE that will make a needle, a pitchfork.
It has permissions up to 15kV, but I have already done a few installations and no one asked me about them. What's more, the recipient did not even ask who was doing the installation.
The measurements were usually very good and nobody had any objections to the technical performance.

It all depends on the ZE, and more specifically on the people who work there.

The above applies, of course, to pre-measure circuits, without connections.

HenryK3 · Answer

There is no reference to the connection in the question.

I share the opinion lechm56
An authorized installer can make a notification for collection at the Power Plant.

.. and the last 2 sentences of my previous speaker.

thalex · Answer

I am dealing with the energy sector in this matter;
I have D and E qualifications in the field of installation and measurements, but the power industry does not want to agree to "submit the installation for acceptance" on my own, explaining that I do not have a license issued by the power industry.
It's about installing behind the counter in my newly built house.
Currently, the construction is completed and the building has been given a number, I wrote an application to the energy sector to change the tariff from C11 to G11 for the answer, I will probably wait about three weeks.

Could you write more precisely about the permissions it is about?

Anonymous · Answer

Hello The topic should be divided into several stages: 1. physical location and connection of wires You don't need any permission to do it in your own home. But you need to know how to lay, what cables and how to secure them. In this case, one of the acquaintances who have the appropriate knowledge may be helpful. The downside of this solution is that not everyone wants to start working later from point 2. 2. inspection of the installation and preparation of papers for collection In order to perform this work 100%, you must have permissions. E or D will do. 3. commissioning of the installation You need building qualifications for this. And all works described in points should be supervised by a person with building qualifications in the field of construction management. And has anyone with building licenses signed that this installation is suitable for operation? If so, I propose to go to the ZE, to the secretariat, ask to whom the paper correspondence should be addressed and send the receipt notification by post with acknowledgment of receipt. They will surely write back that you do not have a license and you will receive another letter on what legal basis they issue such licenses. ZE is not authorized to issue a license. Such may be issued by the minister or his subordinates if they were instructed to do so. The only legal acts regulating these matters are the Construction Law, the Energy Law and the Regulation on technical conditions for buildings. Nothing there on concessions. Maybe a colleague share the info, what legal basis does the ZE use in this case? I have not encountered such practices and I am surprised by this approach of ZE.

Hello. I would like to propose that the LV installation in a single-family house or flat should be done by a qualified person because:
a.it is about human life:
b. equipment that will be connected in such a house certainly costs several thousand zlotys
c. someone who signs the protocol or entry in the work log takes responsibility
d. an electrician who performs installations in houses can bring a lot of interesting solutions, e.g. bistable system, motion sensors, surge arresters, reduced voltage, hermetic lighting, ...
e. the fitter will make the correct phase division calculations.
And you can still write. If you want to save, it is worth doing it with an electrician friend. Greetings.

I'm sorry to cut in but I noticed a small mistake.

It should be "nn" and not "NN" (NN means Highest Voltage). A small error can happen to everyone (I do not mean scoring points with this post, etc.). :D

Taking this opportunity, in my opinion, it is better to entrust an electrical installation to a skilled person.

zaspany · Answer

For the performance of each installation, the person who performs it should have the appropriate permissions and I will not write about the design, workmanship, and acceptance because everything is ok until a misfortune occurs. For example, the insurance will order the documentation of the building's operation, eg from the metering of the installation, or the prosecutor will not let the public prosecutor through the shock.
But maybe I don't know myself

humek · Answer

In general, each of you is right, but someone who does (for himself in his own house) will not perform trash and will try to get the opinion of a friendly electrician who will make the installation. sockets and other collection points do not require writing a doctorate! rather a result of the lack of attention, the lack of basic security in the form of a long line or other simple and logical things, not mountaineering papers or some other license to dig at height. ) or other permits issued after paying a correspondingly fat fee !!!! I don't really know what they are doing !! For me it is clear and obvious that if someone wants to do something himself, he will try to do it better than a flapping specialist and therefore learn in a given topic. it is already as difficult as what some people write here. It is here how in politics ONLY money counts and that's it.

prez8s · Answer

Buddy humek, you are right in part, they require too much of these papers, but in electricity it is just like that if you connect something wrong, you can easily lose even your life. I personally think that such a sep exam is worth nothing, the truth is that those who have a pale idea about electricity get it for free in schools (at least it was a few years ago) and they should not touch this topic at all. I know it. I used to go to such a kennel (electrical technical school), more than half of the people who got sep had no idea about electricity. Well, that's life. Also, in my opinion, you can wear sep. Practical knowledge and skills count more than a piece of paper!

Topolski Mirosław · Answer

kol.prez8s is also partially right, only practical knowledge is gained through years of experience in the profession combined with the knowledge of the principles of operation and the selection of protections, cables, and the use of various solutions. Brand Rozenblut

Gentlemen!
From what you write two things emerged:
1 Do you need permissions?
2 Can it be done?

I think that if someone wants to put these cables on his own, he will not risk enlarging the group of angels - and the answer is that you can do it.
On the other hand, I know about the rights that whether they are needed is written in the laws and ministerial regulations. ZE does not issue any of these papers. And in these papers it says "between the lines" that to connect the meter you need at least one receiver.
Gentlemen, we live in a country where new pieces of paper are invented, but the constitution does not forbid the use of an electric stove-stove, e.g. in a hall - 2 meters from the meter. So we have an installation that needs to be connected to the network (at least one receiver). Recently, models with a voltage supply of 400V are in fashion. they have to pick up something like that and then you can expand it in your own way.
