German Standards?

Stephen Biddle

Hi All

My son has just bought a house in Germany.  He wants me to inspect and carry out some modifications.  What are the applicable German standards?  I imagine they are not far from BS7671 and expect it's some DIN standard.  I'll take my trusty Fluke meter and get it calibrated locally just to be on the safe side.

    Hi All

    Thanks for all the helpful comments.  I've moved in now and already been "outed" as an electrical engineer.  Someone has asked me to inspect a house they have just moved into.  Is there a German version of the EICR?

    yes - and normally it used to be the case that the insurers wanted to see the results certificates, I'm not sure if that is still the case. Mike.

    I have this version, I'm not sure if it is up to date. It states only for training and examination use.

    That looks good Roger, and is not too far from the sort of schedule you would see in the UK. No ring tests of course.

    Being able to speak, or at least read and write in German is an advantage of course.

    Einverstanden  - aber Ich bin nicht so sicher ob der uhrsprunglicher Autor wirdet uns so einfach verstehen.
    Oder etwas in diese richtung - mein Deutsch ist heutzutage etwas verrostet.

    Agreed - but I'm not so sure if the original author will understand us so easily.
Or something along those lines - my German is a bit rusty these days.
