Training courses and seminars

Date: 14.10.2025

In accordance with BetrSichV, DGUV regulation 3 and DIN VDE 0701/0702

Brief description
A compact, practical training day for anyone who has to plan, carry out and document tests in accordance with DGUV V3 in a legally compliant manner. We combine the most important legal principles with hands-on measurement practice on typical test specimens – including assessment of borderline cases, typical error patterns and clean documentation.

Learning objectives – then you can …

• Set up, carry out and evaluate tests correctly in accordance with DIN VDE 0701/0702

• Classify network systems (TN/TT/IT) and select suitable protective measures (DIN VDE 0100-410)

• Safely apply measurement methods (including protective conductor resistance, loop impedance, insulation/replacement leakage current, leakage/fault current, RCD testing, voltage drop, earthing resistance)

• Evaluate measurement results according to standards and document them in a test-proof manner (protocols for systems and devices)

Contents (excerpt)

• Legal basis & responsibility: BetrSichV, DGUV V3, duties of the operator/electrical specialist

• Grid systems < 1 kV: Labeling, TN/TT/IT, typical symptoms & effects

• Protective measures: Protection against electric shock, safe isolation (SELV/PELV), RCD application limits

• Testing in accordance with VDE 0701/0702: Definition of portable devices, scope of application, test procedures, test practice

• Measurement practice: Protective conductor resistance, loop impedance, insulation resistance, (equivalent) leakage current, residual current measurement also for three-phase consumers, voltage polarity/phase sequence, voltage drop, earthing resistance

• Assessment & documentation: normative limit values, sample test protocols, typical pitfalls

Didactics & procedure

• Short theoretical impulses, lots of practice at measuring stations

• Realistic measurement exercises with “good/bad” dummies: specific fault patterns (e.g. increased protective conductor resistance, insulation faults, faulty RCDs) for reliable diagnosis, interpretation of borderline cases and comparison of “best practice” vs. “no-go”

• Live demonstrations, checklists, best practice tips

• Q&A slots for your specific use cases

Target group
Electrical specialists (EFK, VEFK, EFKffT), maintenance & service, test teams/test equipment managers, occupational safety specialists, QM, project/construction management as well as managing directors and managers in small and medium-sized companies.

Organizational matters

• Previous knowledge: basic knowledge of electrical engineering useful

• Documents: Handout with checklists, normative references, protocol templates

• Optional: bring your own test device and 1-2 typical test specimens (for coordination)

• Proof of participation: Certificate of successful participation
