PERSONNEL QUALIFICATIONS
Installation, commissioning and maintenance must be carried out by competent, skilled personnel in possession of
the technical qualifications required by the specific legislation in force.
The term skilled personnel means persons whose training, experience and instruction, as well as their knowledge of the
