Furtos e roubos em rede subterrânea - um olhar sobre seus diversos impactos no setor de planejamento e manutenção

Abstract

The underground network is an energy distribution system made with insulated conductors within electroducts and underground chambers. In 2019, there was an increase of about 300% in the rate of theft of rds cables, which put at risk the integrity of the system. Thus, the main objective of this study was to evaluate, in the light of ergonomics, the impacts caused on the routine of workers in a company resulting from frequent thefts and thefts. This work will be based on the underground distribution network inaugurated in the early 1970s of a specific concessionaire, which will be kept confidential due to ethical issues. This network is of the crosslinked type (Network), which allows the shutdown of one or more feeders does not imply power supply cuts. The methodology used was the ergonomic analysis of the work. As main results, a brief evaluation of the impacts of theft sprees was presented from various perspectives. Therefore, the organization of work in the planning, maintenance and operation services of the company and the impact on electricians and other employees were based. Finally, some proposals were designed to reduce situations of embarrassment to workers.
