Adequately Instructed Persons have basic knowledge of energy technology or a comparable background. They possess general skills in the field and are responsible for adhering to their own tasks. Additionally, they have sufficient knowledge of safety regulations and provisions.<\/p>\n<h3>Learning Objective<\/h3>\n<p>The course is essential for anyone who needs to be familiar with the work regulations from their role. The course covers general aspects necessary for safely managing high-voltage installations and performing electrical engineering tasks safely.<\/p>\n<h3>Theory<\/h3>\n<p>Legislation and regulations.<br \/>Terms and definitions.<br \/>Principles.<br \/>Operating procedures.<br \/>Work procedures.<br \/>Maintenance procedures.<\/p>\n<h3>Online Course<\/h3>\n<p>The course consists of lessons that can be studied on your phone, tablet, or computer. You can review the material as often as you like. This ensures you are thoroughly prepared for the exam that concludes the e-learning module. Upon successful completion, we will issue a certificate.<\/p>\n<h3>Certificate<\/h3>\n<p>The certificate is valid for three years. This means that the certificate must be renewed after that period to demonstrate continued knowledge and skills in the field of electrical safety. By completing this course, both the employer and the employee fulfill the requirements set out in the Working Conditions Act regarding sufficient instruction and demonstrable expertise.<\/p>\n<p>NEN 3840 is a standard (not a legal certification) that prescribes how to work safely on and around electrical installations. There is no official exam recognized by the government or by NEN, but the Dutch Working Conditions Act (Arbowet) requires employers to ensure employees are sufficiently competent. Therefore, ELCONY organizes NEN 3840 courses and conducts an exam afterwards, testing participants\u2019 knowledge and skills. This allows employers to demonstrate compliance with the Arbowet and that employees work safely with electrical installations.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-11 fusion_builder_column_1_5 1_5 fusion-one-fifth fusion-column-last fusion-no-small-visibility\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;width:20%;width:calc(20% - ( ( 4% + 4% ) * 0.2 ) );\" data-scroll-devices=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-image-element fusion-image-align-center in-legacy-container\" style=\"text-align:center;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><div class=\"imageframe-align-center\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-3 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"160\" height=\"100\" title=\"Logo ELCONY 160&#215;100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.elcony.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Logo-ELCONY-160x100-1.png\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-185466\"\/><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-185659","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Online courses VOP 3140, VP NEN 3140, and VOP NEN 3840<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Follow online courses with an online exam for VP NEN 3140, VOP NEN 3140, and VOP NEN 3840, and work safely with low- and high-voltage installations.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.elcony.com\/en\/nen-3140-3840\/\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/en\\\/nen-3140-3840\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/en\\\/nen-3140-3840\\\/\",\"name\":\"Online courses VOP 3140, VP NEN 3140, and VOP NEN 3840\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/it\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-10-01T15:28:31+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-12-07T16:48:24+00:00\",\"description\":\"Follow online courses with an online exam for VP NEN 3140, VOP NEN 3140, and VOP NEN 3840, and work safely with low- and high-voltage installations.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/en\\\/nen-3140-3840\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/en\\\/nen-3140-3840\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/en\\\/nen-3140-3840\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.elcony.com\\\/en\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"NEN 3140 &#8211;
