Compulsory, regulated upgrading
In Belgium, all electrical installations must comply with the Règlement Général sur les Installations Électriques (RGIE). In the event of renovation, property sale or an outdated installation, compliance is mandatory. To ensure safe work and avoid mistakes, we strongly recommend that you call on the services of a certified electrician.
1. Compliance with standards and regulations
A certified electrician is fully aware of the requirements of the RGIE and ensures that every element of the installation complies with current standards. He takes charge of :
- Replacing or upgrading electrical panels
- Installing a differential switch to prevent the risk of electrocution
- Upgrading the earthing system to drain leakage currents
- Adapting sockets, switches and circuits to safety standards
2. Safety and risk prevention
Improper compliance can lead to serious risks:
- Electrocution in case of insufficient protection
- Fire caused by undersized or obsolete wiring
- Damage to electrical appliances caused by unstable installation
A professional guarantees a safe and durable installation, avoiding these dangers.
3. Certified, recognized work
Once the work has been completed, a conformity inspection by an approved body (Vinçotte, BTV, OCB, SGS…) is mandatory to validate the installation. A certified electrician will prepare your installation to pass this inspection the first time, and avoid additional costs in the event of non-compliance.
4. Save time and increase efficiency
Calling in a professional electrician allows you to bring your home up to standard quickly and without complications. He will carry out a precise diagnosis, identify the elements to be corrected and carry out the work as quickly as possible to avoid any prolonged power outages.
5. A guarantee and personalized support
A certified electrician offers a guarantee on the work carried out, ensuring a reliable, long-lasting installation. He can also advise you on modern solutions to improve your installation (home automation, energy savings, surge protection…).
