Frequently asked questions about electrical inspection software

Electrical inspection software should let you prepare jobs, track installations (permanent and temporary), keep histories and produce clear, compliant reports. In Octav, these inspections (permanent and temporary installations, Q18 annex, Consuel DRE) are carried out in the web software, with an internet connection; the mobile app does not support them.

Octav organizes data by client, site, installation, electrical cabinet, document and history to make information immediately usable. Every past report, every observation and every compliance document is accessible in a few clicks from the record of the relevant installation.

Yes. Octav covers permanent and temporary installations, the Q18 annex and the Consuel DRE, in its web software.

The mandatory periodic inspection of electrical installations is annual for most establishments (Article R. 4226-16 of the French Labor Code, order of 26 December 2011). On job sites, an initial inspection takes place at each installation, then every year on long-duration sites.

Not as a dedicated report: Octav does not produce Q19 thermography reports. The Q18 report only records whether a Q19 report has been issued.

Yes. Each cabinet, switchboard or installation is tracked individually in Octav with its own identifier, inspection history, anomaly photos, technical documents (diagrams, manuals) and deadlines.
