Abstract:In order to realize the prediction of safety risks for working in electric confined spaces, considering four risk sources including personnel, tools, environment,and management,the safety risk weight of different sources was calculated using analytic hierarchy process, meanwhile the actual safety conditions of risk sources were judged by subjective evaluation. Based on that, the final operating condition risk assessment method score was obtained by adjusting the initial LEC score. In particular, for environmental risk, the method assessed coupling risks from multiply kinds of toxic and harmful gases. A case study in electric confined spaces shows that the method is highly operable, presenting accurately quantitative evaluation on work risk level.
