Many organizations, notably Hydro Québec and the CNESST require that construction equipment must be equipped with a range limiting device that blocks the system to avoid contact with electrical wires and any environmental obstacles. You thus have to conform to the « Safety code for construction ».
Attestation letter
For each new installation an engineer letter is issued certifying the quality of the operating system of the machine.
When was your last inspection?
ATTENTION! The certificate is valid for 1 year of the date of installation of the range limiting device. It is recommended to have the system inspected every year in order to obtain a new engineer certificate. The fines for this type of violation can be very costly. On top of paying for this violation, you will be obligated to have the system inspected in order to obtain a new attestation. Without a renewal you will be unable to operate on the work site.
Save your time and money! Do your inspection on the system before the beginning of the construction season!
