Riscos em instalações elétricas industriais: uma análise qualitativa das percepções e práticas de segurança

Abstract

This paper presents a qualitative analysis of the risks in industrial electrical installations, focusing on the perceptions and safety practices adopted in these environments. The relevance of the topic lies in the need to ensure the physical integrity of workers and the operational efficiency of industries that rely on electricity. The study addresses the application of regulatory standards NR-10 and NR-28, the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Collective Protective Equipment (CPE), as well as the implementation of safety management methodologies, such as the PDCA cycle. The methodology employed was a literature review, based on studies and articles on electrical safety in industrial environments. The discussion highlights the challenges faced by companies in implementing the regulations and providing adequate training for workers, as well as the importance of continuous safety process management. It is concluded that the strict application of regulations, combined with the correct use of PPE and CPE and proactive safety management, is essential for accident prevention and the promotion of a safe and efficient work environment.
