Frequently Asked Questions

What is an electrical verification certificate?

An electrical verification certificate is an official document issued by an ANRE-certified electrician confirming that the electrical system meets safety standards. It's required for property sales, new construction approvals, or energy supplier requests.

How much does an electrical verification certificate cost?

The cost of a verification certificate ranges from 150 to 400 RON, depending on the property size and installation complexity.

How do I know if my electrical system needs replacing?

What's the difference between an electrician and an electromechanic?

An electrician works with building electrical systems (residential, commercial). An electromechanic handles electrical systems in machinery, motors, and industrial equipment. For home work, you need an electrician.
