WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

The competence of persons designated by the code BA4 or BA5 is granted to workers by the employer and recorded in a document that clearly defines for which work and which electrical installations the competence applies (RD 25-04-2004, art. 3.2).
The employer ensures the necessary training of workers and provides the necessary instructions to avoid the risks associated with the use, operation and work on the electrical installation, taking into account the tasks assigned to these workers (Code, book III, title 2).
