On the subject of DGUV V3 testing

DGUV Regulation 3 (formerly BGV A3) refers to the testing of electrical systems and equipment.
It serves to ensure the safety and protection of people and property from the dangers of electrical energy.
The tests according to DGUV V3 are required by law and must be carried out regularly.
Electrical systems and devices are checked for proper functionality and safety.
It is important to take these tests seriously to minimize potential hazards and avoid accidents.


A DGUV V3 test, also known as an electrical safety test, is carried out to check the electrical safety of devices and systems.
Various tests are carried out, such as measuring the insulation resistance, checking the protective conductor connection and testing the functionality of the protective devices.
The exact procedure may vary depending on the type of equipment and systems being tested. It is important that the test is carried out by qualified personnel to ensure safety.


A DGUV V3 test may be carried out by qualified specialists. These usually include electricians,
Electrical engineers or electrical technicians who have the necessary knowledge and skills in the field of electrical safety.
It is important that the inspection is carried out by persons who have appropriate training and experience to ensure the safety of electrical installations and equipment.


For a DGUV V3 test, various devices and measuring instruments are required to check the electrical safety of systems and equipment. The devices commonly used include:

1. Insulation tester: This device measures the insulation resistance of electrical wires and equipment to ensure that there are no unwanted current paths.

2. Earth tester: This device checks the quality of the protective conductor connection to ensure that current is safely discharged in the event of a fault.

3. Residual current circuit breaker tester: This device is used to check the functionality of residual current circuit breakers, which are designed to interrupt the circuit in the event of a fault and thus protect against electric shock.

4. Multimeter: A multimeter is used to measure various electrical parameters such as voltage, current and resistance.

5. Test adapters and test plugs: These are used to establish the electrical connections between the test equipment and the devices under test.

It is important that the equipment used complies with applicable standards and regulations and is regularly calibrated and maintained to ensure accurate measurement results.


If a DGUV V3 test is not carried out, various risks can arise. The DGUV V3 test is a safety test of electrical systems and devices that should be carried out regularly.
If this test is neglected, there is a risk of electrical accidents, short circuits, fires or other electrical malfunctions.
In addition, the lack of a DGUV V3 test can lead to legal consequences, as companies are legally obliged to ensure the safety of their electrical systems.
It is therefore advisable to carry out the DGUV V3 test regularly to ensure safety and minimize possible risks.
