Análise ergonômica da utilização do alicate tipo y35 em câmara subterrânea de rede de distribuição de energia elétrica

Abstract

Electric energy is a moving fluid of society. The evolution of supply using underground energy distribution networks has harmonized the interaction with the population, the vegetation and the aesthetics of large cities. The development of the underground network has created a new confined working environment for electricians. This impacted the routine until then existing for these workers with controlled risks and defined procedures. Furthermore, with the increase in the theft of copper cables, the recomposition of this component made the maintenance of this network more frequent. Consequently, the use of hydraulic compression pliers type Y35, a mandatory tool for connecting distribution cables, was increased, generating reports of complaints of shoulder pain by workers who use this tool in underground galleries. Through the Ergonomic Analysis of Work, we sought to understand the constraints experienced by these workers, as well as identify the regulations implemented by them in order to suggest improvements in working conditions.
