Electricity and lifts

picture

Factors contributing to the maintained high level of electrical safety in Finland include supervision, development and communication. Supervision extends to the safety of electrical equipment and supplies, to energy labelling of certain appliances, to manufacture and import of electrical products, to electrical facilities, installations and contracting, to electrical inspectors and inspection agencies, and to institutes for the evaluation of personal qualifications. We also supervise the safety of lifts and the work of lift inspecting bodies.
