During the electrical safety training process, a specialist undergoes a training course according to an established program; at the end of the course, the acquired knowledge and skills must be confirmed. Employees who successfully complete the training receive a standard certificate. From this moment on, they have the right to work in electrical installations, and the volume and complexity of the work performed depend on the assigned tolerance group.
An employee who has received a certificate is responsible for his own safety, as he has the necessary minimum knowledge and skills. Confirmation of qualifications is carried out in a licensed training center with examination tests in the presence of an inspector from Rostechnadzor. Certification for groups 4-5 can also be completed directly at Rostechnadzor.
Electrical Safety Training Application Form.
The training center accepts electrical safety training for employees of electric power industry enterprises when filling out an application for retraining; after completing the course, each employee will receive a certificate of the established form.
Who in the enterprise needs electrical safety training?
Employees of the enterprise must undergo a training course at a training center if the performance of their official duties involves working in electrical installations, their maintenance or inspection.
Depending on the level of special training, the employee, after examination, is assigned one of five access groups. The list of personnel who need to obtain a permit is compiled by the person responsible for electrical equipment. In this case, electrical safety group 1 is assigned without visiting the training center by an internal order of the head of the enterprise.
Instructions on electrical safety are carried out by the certification commission of the enterprise. The commission should consist of 3 employees with 3-5 electrical safety groups.
Electrical safety training for employees.
Without obtaining a qualification group, an employee is not allowed to work or maintain electrical installations. Personnel, starting from the second admission group, must undergo electrical safety training. The first group is instructed at the enterprise.
1 group of electrical safety clearance
The first admission group is necessary for non-electrical personnel who come into contact with electrical appliances during their work activities. The list of positions for which training is required includes:
- Personnel who work with office equipment or PCs.
- Cleaning service employees who clean rooms where electrical appliances are located.
- Drivers
The company must keep a logbook for testing knowledge of the rules of work in electrical installations; information about the trained personnel and the time of instruction are entered in it.
Group 2 electrical safety clearance
Assigned to employees of an enterprise who work at electrical installations, but do not have the right to connect them to the network on their own. This includes a wide range of professions: elevator operators, cooks, welders, etc.
Electrical safety approval group 3
The third group of admission expands the capabilities of working with equipment - personnel with this qualification have the right to work with electrical installations independently, including connecting them to the power supply network. Officials whose duties include inspection and maintenance of equipment must have the same clearance group.
Group 4 electrical safety clearance
It is necessary for employees holding higher positions, managing teams or departments in the enterprise, and having significant work experience. For example, the heads of the site or the chief power engineer of the organization. This tolerance group is up to 1000 volts and above 1000 volts.
5 electrical safety clearance group
The highest qualifications are required for personnel and officials who work with powerful electrical installations - from 1000 V. It is also assigned to employees testing high-voltage equipment.
Where do electrical safety training take place?
Workers who are thinking about where to get electrical safety training should carefully read this regulatory document. It determines that the following training options are allowed to obtain the necessary knowledge on electrical safety:
- conducting training events by the employing organization. In this case, a specially authorized employee is appointed by order of the manager to organize classes. He himself must have the necessary knowledge and skills;
- conducting training with the assistance of a specialized educational center. In this situation, it is necessary to ensure that the training program takes into account the specifics of the production process at a particular enterprise;
- independent study of the necessary information by the employee. For these purposes, today there are numerous teaching materials and visual aids. In addition, with the help of special online services, an employee can try to take a preliminary electrical safety exam and assess the actual level of his knowledge.
New rules on labor protection during the operation of electrical installations in 2016
From October 19, 2021, amendments to the Labor Safety Rules during the operation of electrical installations come into force. In addition to a large number of organizational changes, the updated regulations change the sample of the certificate issued to personnel after verification of the admission group, and the knowledge testing protocol.
According to the current legislation (specifically, according to the resolution of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of January 13, 2003 N 1/29, clause 3.3), when making changes or additions to the standards governing labor protection in the field of electrical safety, employees of enterprises must undergo an extraordinary inspection. After the training course, an updated certificate is issued.
It must be remembered that the employer does not have the right to grant access to electrical installations to personnel without specialized training. If such a violation is detected, the official responsible for it faces a fine. And if an accident occurs at the enterprise due to the fault of an untrained employee, then the management is brought to criminal liability (Article 143 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

Certification for electrical safety in Rostechnadzor
A graduate of an educational institution with a degree in electrical engineering immediately receives the second group of admission. Then he can improve his level of qualifications by gaining work experience in his profile and completing a training course. Training is carried out in an educational institution that has the appropriate license.
An employee can also undergo training on the basis of the company, however, then the certificate is issued by a commission of 5 members, each of whom must have an electrical safety group higher than the one that will be assigned, and the commission must also include a representative of Rostechnadzor.
Training is mandatory when recruiting new personnel, within the time limits regulated by the rules or in special situations prescribed in the regulations (extraordinary).
Electrical safety courses – short terms.
Electrical safety certification in Rostekhnadzor, training courses with the issuance of a certificate and a knowledge testing journal of the established form. Constant recruitment of groups for extraordinary testing of specialists. Licensed educational institution.
Where to get certified in electrical safety: exam in the organization
The certification procedure based on training results is carried out in a unified manner, regardless of where and how the employee was trained. One of the certification methods is to pass a qualifying exam within the organization. This option is allowed in the following cases:
- employees are classified as non-electrical personnel, and by order of the employer they are required to obtain group I in electrical safety. In this case, the employing company provides instructions and subsequent knowledge testing. Its results are recorded in a special journal. A certificate of completion of certification is not issued;
- workers refer to electrical or electrotechnological personnel who carry out various operations with industrial electrical equipment. At the same time, the company has a sufficient number of employees with the required electrical safety group to create a certification commission. This method of certification is possible when assigning groups II-IV to employees.
Where certification for electrical safety is carried out: Rostechnadzor authorities
Another option for certification is to take an exam at Rostechnadzor. This option is chosen in the following cases:
- workers need to obtain electrical safety groups II-IV, but the enterprise does not have enough employees with the required level of qualifications. In this situation, the creation of a certification commission is not possible, and without it, the organization is not allowed to carry out independent certification;
- workers need to obtain group V. In this situation, certification tests are carried out only by Rostechnadzor bodies.
Frequency of electrical safety training
How often an employee must undergo training is determined by his clearance group and job functions:
- Once a year - personnel with qualification group 1, personnel with clearance groups II-V, working, servicing or conducting tests on electrical equipment, having the right to issue orders or work orders.
- Once every three years - personnel with clearance groups II-V (except for employees included in the first point), personnel who do not work directly in electrical installations, but assign orders or inspect, in addition, labor safety engineers involved in inspecting electrical equipment.
Extraordinary test of knowledge on electrical safety
Electrical safety training is not always provided only once a year or three years. Sometimes employees have to confirm their knowledge more often:
- When applying for a new position or in another company.
- When interrupting service for a period of 3 years or more.
- When updating the organization's equipment.
- Subject to appropriate resolution of regulatory authorities.
- When changes in labor protection standards and regulations come into force.
- When increasing the access group.
Electrical safety testing program
Every person who has chosen a profession related to electricity and energy must periodically test their knowledge of electrical safety. This is mandatory for everyone and there are no exceptions. Thanks to compliance with this rule, people do not die and are not maimed en masse at the enterprises of our Motherland.
The knowledge test is carried out by a person or a special commission. These people are well trained and have many professional knowledge and qualities.
As a rule, when testing knowledge, the test taker is asked to pass test tasks in writing or orally answer certain questions from the assessors. It will not be possible to automate oral certification yet, because you need a quantum computer and artificial intelligence that understands the answers and meaning of the questions asked, and the execution of Test tasks can be automated without problems.
There are many software solutions for this on the Internet, but not all of them will satisfy picky users in terms of interface and functionality. Electrical safety testing programs should be convenient and understandable to anyone undergoing testing.
On this site we have our own development, suitable for many power engineers, electricians and electricians - DND Electrical Safety and Safety →. This electrical safety testing program contains almost all the necessary functions for conducting high-quality certification, these are:
1. A rich, minimalistic interface in which there is nothing superfluous, all controls are located in the correct position and the user will never get lost in them.
2. Using a variety of databases with tests will allow you to take tests with different questions and tickets.
3. The test editor is designed as a separate application, using it you can create your own test databases.
4. The program can use several testing modes: Exam (testing with the output of the result), Preparing for the exam (in this mode, all available questions in the test are given for their subsequent solution), Working on errors (the mode is available after the exam, in which the user answers to previously incorrectly answered questions), Preliminary preparation for the exam (a mode in which the test taker is given literature that he can read for a certain time before the exam).
