Testing the electrical cable winch

Wear measurement and replacement of the load 
hook 

Fig. 9: Hook dimension

According to DIN 15405 Part 1, the load hook must be 
replaced if the expansion is greater than 10%. 

 

10 Testing the electrical cable 

winch

The use of the electrical cable winch is possible after: 

UVV "Winches, lifting and pulling equipment" BGV D8 
(VBG 8), UVV "Cranes" BGV D6 (VBG 9) 

Inspection by an expert prior to initial commissioning and 
after major modifications when used in accordance with 
BGV D8 § 23 (VBG 8 § 23). 

Testing in accordance with BGV D6 § 25 (VBG 9 § 25) 
by an authorised expert before initial commissioning and 
after major modifications. 

Periodic inspections of equipment, cranes and suppor-
ting structures by a specialist once a year. In severe ope-
rating conditions, e.g. frequent operation at full load, du-
sty or aggressive environment, high switching frequency, 
high duty cycle, test distances must be shortened.

Expert 

for the testing of cranes, only the experts authori-

sed by the employers' liability insurance associations are 
considered in addition to the TÜV experts.

Specialists 

are customer service fitters of the manu-

facturer or specially trained technical personnel.

The inspection shall be documented in an inspection 
book.

The test is essentially a visual and functional test. It ex-
tends to the inspection of the condition of the compo-
nents and equipment, the completeness and effective-
ness of the safety equipment and the completeness of 
the inspection book.
