Bus/Financial - Insurance
Swedish term or phrase: värdeskåp
In an insurance text which differentiates between kassaskåp, värdeskåp and säkerhetsskåp

I am struggling to find what the difference is between the first two terms. They both appear to mean safe.


Med godkänd värdeförvaringsenhet - enhet för skydd av pengar, värdeföremål och värdehandlingar mot inbrott - avses här kassa-, säkerhets och värdeskåp som efter provning blivit certifierade enligt nedanstående standard.

För de ovan uppräknade kassa- säkerhets och värdeskåpen gäller följande beloppsbegränsningar för hur högt värde som tillåts förvaras i respektive skåp.

Kassa- och säkerhetsskåp
För kassaskåp enligt SS 3493 och säkerhetsskåp enligt SS 3492 är beloppsgränsen 1 basbelopp

Värdeskåp enligt standard SS 3000

neutral  Deane Goltermann: Right, they are all 'safes' in our everyday minds. But they cite SS standards so the technical writer in me says follow the standard...(not the money)

Reference information:
Here are two suggestions, that depend on your context... you might go with the storage unit, since I think 'kassascope' can also be free-standing.

But you might have to look at your doc...It gives you a hint with the SS 3000 standard, referenced below, but it says it is replaced with SS3150, which is also replaced, leading to https://www.sis.se/en/produkter/environment-health-protectio...

Some reading... lots of ideas.
