German term

„Allgemeine bauaufsichtliche Zulassung“

German to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general)
Context:

"Funktion der Sonden prüfen.
siehe „Allgemeine bauaufsichtliche Zulassung“ der Sonde"

This sounds like "building regulations" to me, but that doesn't really seem appropriate in connection with sensors.
Proposed translations (English)
3 +1 national technical approval
4 approved by the building authorities

Beispiel DIBT Gegenstand:
Standaufnehmer (Schwingsonde) mit eingebautem Messumformer Typ XY. sowie nachgeschaltetem Messumformer als Standgrenzschalter von Überfüllsicherungen für Behälter zum Lagern wassergefährdender Flüssigkeiten.

Es muss sich nicht immer um Bauwerke handeln.
David Williams (asker) Jul 23, 2010:
Könnte sein aber ich dachte eher, dass WHG der Hersteller sei.
Bernd Runge Jul 23, 2010:
WHG wie Wasserhaushaltsgesetz?
David Williams (asker) Jul 23, 2010:
These are WHG sensors in a chlorine electrolysis system used to generate sodium hypochlorite by electrolysis of salt water/brine.
Kim Metzger Jul 22, 2010:
What kind of sensor are we talking about?
Bernd Runge Jul 22, 2010:
Sonde / probe kann auch etwas sein, dass in den Erdboden versenkt wird.

German term (edited): Allgemeine bauaufsichtliche Zulassung
Selected

national technical approval

... is the widely accepted translation for all types of construction products.

See, for example,

I've also seen "general technical approval".

Nonetheless, I'd use "national technical approval" because the same system seems to apply here.
Note from asker:
These sensors aren't really construction products, although the system in which they are used is only intended for indoor use.

Genau, "Bauprodukte" ist hier in der Tat *sehr* weit zu fassen ;-)

Thanks, although -- as mentioned above -- this has nothing to do with construction, in contrast to Chris Koenig's question.
