Requests for maps

Are you a contractor planning to carry out work close to our facilities? If so, please report your worksite to ensure that you operate in complete safety.

Any contractor wishing to carry out works close to pipelines that transport hazardous products or near to high-voltage lines or underground power cables is required to report these works to the relevant system operators in order to obtain maps of their facilities. To this end, KLIM/CICC (Federal Cable and Pipeline Information Database)has been set up, as well as  KLIP (regional Cable and Pipeline Information Portal) for Flanders only.

Register your worksite on the KLIM/CICC website

To register your worksite, log on to the KLIM/CICC website then enter details about the planned works and their location. An email containing this information is automatically sent to the respective system operators who are part of KLIM/CICC (including Elia).
The system operators must reply to your email within certain statutory periods (which vary depending on the circumstances), attaching maps of their underground facilities if necessary. You will also receive an email listing the operators concerned and confirming that you have fulfilled your notification obligation.

In Flanders, requests for maps must be submitted via this website or that of the Cable and Pipeline Information Portal (KLIP) set up by the Flemish Region.

In the other regions of Belgium, it is strongly recommended that you use the KLIM/CICC website. However, if necessary you may contact the relevant Elia Contact Centre directly.

Elia Contact Centres

Elia’s Contact Centres deal with requests for maps and the issuing of notices to contractors planning works in the vicinity of Elia facilities (such as lines or high-voltage substations).
