PRAM electrical testing
PRAM measurements and test report
PRAM measurements (the Romanian term for earthing and installation testing) check the earthing system and the protection of the electrical installation. We carry out the measurements, explain the results and give you the test report, which you present at inspections, at the handover of an installation or in the grid connection file.
In short
What we check during PRAM measurements
We measure the earthing resistance, check the continuity of the protective conductors, measure the insulation resistance of the circuits and test that the residual current protection works. The results are recorded in the test report.
Businesses need these checks periodically and for inspections. Homes need them at the handover of a new installation, for the grid connection file or after major changes to the installation.
The testing interval depends on the type of building and activity; we tell you what applies in your case. If a value is out of range, we explain what it means and what needs to be fixed.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about PRAM testing
What is a PRAM test report?
It is the document that records the results of the measurements on the earthing system and the electrical installation: earthing resistance, continuity of the protective conductors, insulation resistance and the operation of the residual current protection. It shows whether the installation properly protects people in the event of a fault.
Who needs PRAM measurements?
Businesses need them periodically and for inspections. Homes need them at the handover of a new installation, for the grid connection or power increase file and after major changes to the installation.
How much do PRAM measurements cost?
It depends on the size of the installation and the number of circuits to be checked. Labour starts from 250 lei + VAT per hour per electrician, with a minimum of one hour, and travel is charged separately. Tell us what kind of building it is and you will get a written quote.
What happens if the results are not good?
We explain which value is out of range and why. For example, the earthing system may need additional electrodes. After the repair we repeat the measurements and you get the test report with the correct values.
