Training BA4 or training BA5 (AREI)

You don’t need any electrical prior knowledge for these courses. Anyone who is masters the language can participate

This can be done in several ways.

Through our online platform, you can explore our open training days and register your employees directly for a specific training opportunity.

The main difference is the amount of experience and autonomy allowed.

• A BA5 attestee needs significantly more experience than a BA4 attestee.
• The BA4 attestee must never work unsupervised on an electrical installation.

• In short, a BA4 may only carry out non-electrical work in the vicinity of a plant without supervision.
• The BA5 attestee may work alone and unsupervised, and may also supervise the electrical works of a BA4.

A BA4 attestee may work on or near an electrical installation.

Work on the installation itself may admittedly only be done under the supervision of a BA5 attestee.

For example, consider the following:

• Painting an electrical switch room.
• Working or cleaning near sockets and equipment.
• Checking a switch’s bad contact (under supervision).
• Flipping a switch in a switch box (under supervision).

A BA5 attestee has a much greater degree of autonomy.

They may work alone and unsupervised on or near an electrical installation.

A BA5 attestee may additionally supervise BA4 attestees, allowing them to carry out work on an electrical installation.

Some examples:

• Checking or repairing an electrical installation at a customer’s premises without assistance from a colleague.
• Switching electricity on or off on a construction site without supervision.
• Performing unsupervised actions: fitting sockets, connecting machines, laying cables, etc.
• Supervise BA4 attested persons when working on an installation – solar panels, batteries, machinery, switchgear…

If you do not have any prior electrical knowledge, we recommend you take the BA4 course first. The BA5 course may be too difficult without prior knowledge. After all, we want to provide quality training so that the BA5 certificate is not just a piece of paper you can hang up but a guarantee that you have effective knowledge to do safe work.

Of course!

Contact us with some details (how many people and what training) and we will check if there is still enough space available on the chosen training day to train the group in question at once.

If desired, the group can also be spread over several training moments.

We will be happy to quote for training your entire team.

By organising these training courses in groups, Prevom can offer a more affordable and accessible rate.

This also saves on travel costs for you as an employer, and makes it possible to spread the training over several times so that the majority of your employees remain at work while a few are being trained.

Should you wish to organise training with a larger group on one day, you can always contact us for more information.

According to legislation, this certificate must be issued by the employer.

Unfortunately, Prevom cannot prepare and issue this certificate to an employee on your behalf.

You can always contact us for a total solution in which one of our experts will assist you with the further obligations and necessary administration involved in attesting your employees.

You can contact us by e-mail or phone for more information.

Strictly speaking, training is not a legal obligation, but Prevom strongly recommends it.

When an employer issues a certificate, this is a big responsibility.
Especially if there is an accident involving electricity.

Thanks to specialised training, as an employer, you can be sure that your employee has the necessary skills to handle electricity safely when carrying out all kinds of work on and around an installation.

Prevom operates a fair and transparent policy – so there are no hidden or additional costs. Both professional and private customers always receive a valid VAT invoice.

A BA4 or BA5 certificate must always be issued by the employer. An external training centre does not have the authority to do this.

In fact, it is the employer who certifies that the employee in question has the necessary skills.

Prevom can always assist you in dealing with the additional formalities involved in attestation.
