What sources does Taxxa search?

Taxxa searches a continuously updated collection of more than one million pages from tax authorities, government publications, legislation and case law across the European jurisdictions it covers. Every response cites the underlying material, so a professional can inspect the rule, its jurisdiction and whether it is current before relying on the result.

Can Taxxa work with a team’s own documents?

Yes. Research can combine the public knowledge base with a team’s own PDF, DOCX, CSV and TXT files in one workspace. That makes it possible to compare a client document with the relevant guidance, trace a conclusion to its source and prepare a draft without losing the evidence that supports it.

Who is Taxxa built for?

Accountants, auditors, tax advisors, payroll specialists, bookkeepers and advisory teams working across European jurisdictions. Shared workspaces keep research available to colleagues, and citations make review easier.

Where is customer data stored, and is it used to train models?

Customer data stays in the European Union and is never used to train language models.

Does Taxxa replace professional judgement?

No. Taxxa is a research and drafting workspace. It helps professionals reach an informed starting point faster; the professional still reviews the evidence and makes the final decision. It does not file returns, post bookkeeping entries or give legal advice.

Airfield lighting circuits get lockout duties, design exemptions

New Code des transports articles R. 6351-39–R. 6351-41 impose lockout-before-work on series-fed runway lighting, exempt it from three Code du travail design rules and remit verification to a joint arrêté.

The Code des transports gains a new Section 4 on worker protection for airfield ground lighting (AGL)Legifrance: where runway and taxiway lighting runs on series circuits fed by constant-current regulators at variable voltage, every measure must secure workers — notably by identifying and locking out (consignation électrique) the series circuits concerned before each intervention on a primary circuitLegifrance, with absence of current verified by remote energising and de-energising before any lockout. A joint arrêté of the labour, transport and armed-forces ministers will set the technical requirements, including the de-energising devices — including in emergencies — and the disconnecting and circuit-identification devices of articles R. 4215-7 and R. 4215-10 of the Code du travail.Legifrance

Because constant-current series circuits cannot meet standard design rules, article R. 6351-40 exempts AGL series circuits designed and built for runway and taxiway lighting from the Code du travail's article R. 4215-3 2° (no dangerous potential difference between masses on insulation fault), R. 4215-4 (protection against dangerous voltages from neighbouring higher-voltage plant or earth faults) and R. 4215-8 (emergency cut-off devices) — both as built and, via article R. 4226-6, for new builds, additions and structural modifications.Legifrance

Verification follows a parallel derogation: article R. 6351-41 provides that, by derogation from article R. 4226-18, an arrêté of the labour, transport and armed-forces ministers sets the methods, periodicity and report contents for the initial, periodic and temporary-installation verifications of AGL series circuits under articles R. 4226-14, R. 4226-16 and R. 4226-21Legifrance — displacing the default labour-and-agriculture arrêté. The underlying duties remain: initial verification at commissioning and after structural modification, and periodic verification that installations stay compliant.

The new Section 4 was created by décret n° 2026-943 du 8 octobre 2026Legifrance Legifrance, whose article 2 allows the R. 6351-41 verification arrêté to defer application by up to twelve months from publication. The companion arrêté du 8 octobre 2026 lays down the technical requirements for series-fed AGLLegifrance — regulator output of 1.8 to 6.6 A up to 30 kVA and 5,000 V, isolating and earthing switchgear, equipotential bonding of series-circuit masses, and indelible labelling of every component — entering into force the day after publication except for its chapter II, which applies one year after publication.

Legal basis: décret n° 2026-943 du 8 octobre 2026 creating Code des transports articles R. 6351-39 to R. 6351-41 (Section 4)Legifrance, with the arrêté du 8 octobre 2026 on AGL series-circuit requirements, read with Code du travail articles R. 4215-3, R. 4215-4, R. 4215-7, R. 4215-8, R. 4215-10 and R. 4226-6 to R. 4226-21.

If your staff work on series-fed runway or taxiway lighting circuits, apply the R. 6351-39 identify-and-lockout procedure with remote absence-of-current check, and track the arrêté du 8 octobre 2026 chapter II requirements that apply one year after its publication.
