Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / electrician qualifications in France
French term or phrase: B1N and B1T
This comes from a manual of conditions for low voltage live working.
"Si le travail est exécuté sur une ligne aérienne en conducteurs nus, le chargé de travaux doit confier à une personne, habilitée au moins:
- B1N pour les travaux de nettoyage,
- B1T pour les autres travaux,
le soin de suivres ses mouvements dans l'environnement des conducteurs nus sous tension."

Anybody know the equivalent English qualification or at least what the French terms stand for?

Thank you.

This may be applicable to electricians working at Hong Kong. Other countries may have other regulations. Therefore, being unable to identify the source and target countries, I would propose to take the grades as they are (perhaps with relevant explanations)
