There are two kind of electrician licenses and task : Installation and inspection.
An electrician company is not allowed to do the very first inspection of its own work, whereas an inspector is not allowed to fix things during inspection.
An inspection of the installation is around CHF 350. By law it must be done every 20 years for residential buildings.
AND it must be done when the object (apt/house) is sold and the last check was done more than 5 years ago.
