Risk Analysis of Electrical Shocks and Fires Through Fuzzy Systems in Electrical Installations

The concept of social responsibility in engineering is an obligation of the professional to
evaluate their work in the public welfare. Most students don’t have contact with real risk situations of
electrical instlation shock. In this context, we present an evolution of an extension project work, at the
Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, Cornélio Procópio (UTFPR). Thus, the main goal is to
present a tool for the cognitive quantification of electrical shock and fire risks by means of a simplifiedRule-based Dynamic Fuzzy Cognitive Map (sRBD-FCM). to aid training and awareness methods for the
inhabiants. It uses historical data from electrical shock and firehazard principles to modify the critical
risk levels aspects for fire propagation or increased occurance of electrical shock. Through the initial
results it was possible to detect the desirable effects in the proposed cognitive tool. Therefore, future
works will address the proposal validation in real case studies
