Dear colleague(s), I am looking for the correct translation of 'onderzoekschouw' into English.
I cannot give you a sentence, because I only have a list of terms, but it has to do with sewers.

Can anybody help me, please?
Thank you!
Hilde

- via a saddle onto an existing sewer
- via an existing manhole or existing inspection chamber
- via a new inspection chamber or new manhole*
