Historia oceny jakości wyrobów elektrycznych w Polsce
The History of Assessment of Electric Products in Poland

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the history of research into the quality of electric products produced in Poland from the beginning of the electrical industry. The first problems concerning the quality and standardisation were analysed as early as at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The appropriate systemic approach was adopted in 1919 when the Association of Polish Electricians was set up; now there are over 23,000 members in the organisation and soon it will be celebrating its 100th anniversary. After presenting the period before the Second World War, the author concentrates on research and the qualitative determination in the years 1945- 2004. Another period presented in the article is the one after Poland had joined the European Union; here the reader will also find a description of the currently used research methods and their impact on the countries of Western Europe. There is also a list of the certified labs in which research and assessments are being carried out in the field of electricity. The Polish Economic Chamber of Electrical Engineering, organisation of the economic local government for production companies, thanks to its involvement and in cooperation with State’s bodies supervises the brands of the Polish producers in the field of the electrical engineering industry.
