About the course NEN 3140 basics

The ARBO law includes general provisions for the safety, health, and welfare of individuals. The NEN 3140 standard encompasses these provisions for all individuals working with or using electrical installations, machinery, and hand tools. The standard is considered binding by the Labor Inspectorate, companies, institutions, insurance companies, and legislators.

In addition to the NEN 1010 standard, the NEN 3140 standard is important during the mandatory annual inspection and inspection of electrical installations and (hand) tools.
