The secondary school is on a 5-year cycle. The administration building and the recycling centre on a 10-year cycle. The municipal apartments on a 20-year cycle. Three cycles, letters that get lost between two legislatures — and the municipality remains responsible as the holder of every installation. We audit the portfolio and smooth the deadlines over 10 years.
Every building must be re-inspected at a fixed interval, and that interval depends on its use. In a municipality, this rarely gives two buildings on the same rhythm.
| Municipal building | Inspection interval |
|---|---|
| School, secondary school, main hall, multi-purpose hall | 5 years |
| Public lighting | 5 years |
| Administration, church, recycling centre, road maintenance depot, fire station | 10 years |
| Municipal apartments and apartment buildings | 20 years |
| SH3 installations — earthing via the neutral, without a separate protective conductor | 5 years, whatever the use |
| A single Schéma III circuit puts the whole installation on a 5-year cycle. What ESTI directive 225 says (ESTI = Swiss Federal Inspectorate for Heavy Current Installations). | |
Each building, its inspection interval, the date of the last known report, the deadline — drawn up from your own documents, and completed beyond your list if needed. Including the acceptance inspections of projects delivered in recent years — often the gap in the file.
Inspections spread over 10 years: a fixed, predictable expense per year instead of five reminders in the same year. Can be dropped as is into your financial planning. We write the budget line for the inspections for you.
The grid operators' letters can come to us instead of you. Nothing more to sort, nothing more to file, no more deadline running in a folder — ask us how.
On a municipal portfolio or a large building, there are very often defects somewhere: that is what makes coordination possible, whereas it makes no sense on a single isolated building.
Defects corrected the same day, report issued straight afterwards. If you would like the corrections to be made during our visit, we organise the work with the electrician of your choice — or we pass on two or three companies that work this way.
What you gain is time: the safety report goes out immediately instead of waiting several weeks. And a single visit to the hall or the school, instead of two.
We have no in-house electrician and we earn nothing on anyone else's work. That is the condition of our independence, and it is what gives our report its value.
List of buildings, inventory of inspections, costs, calendar. The document serves as an annex to the management report, as the answer to the management committee's next request, and as proof that you did what was necessary should something go wrong. A decision within the municipal executive's authority, no formal proposal needed: one page, one price.
Receive the meeting packNo — we can't. The law separates the roles: the inspection body is independent and never does the work. Corrections stay with your electrician; we even bring him some. Referee, not competitor.
No. That certificate covers energy and the condition of the building fabric — not OIBT compliance (OIBT = the Swiss Low-Voltage Installations Ordinance). Open your reports: the column isn't there. The audit is the complement, not a duplicate.
Depending on the grid operator's deadline, inspections can be deferred or brought forward.
It goes to the Federal Inspectorate ESTI, which sets a final deadline and charges a fee of CHF 700 per file. We step in as a priority within 2-3 days to deliver the report before the deadline. The audit costs less than the ESTI file.
