Your plant in Brazil, compliant with Brazilian standards.
Consulting for foreign companies doing business with Brazil, machinery safety (NR-12), electrical safety (NR-10), industrial electrical installations, training and management software. Every job signed by a registered Brazilian engineer, with technical responsibility (ART).
Why you need a local engineer in Brazil
In Brazil, the safety of machinery and electrical installations is governed by the Ministry of Labour's Regulatory Standards (NR), which have the force of law. Labour inspectors can fine the company and, where there is serious risk, shut down a machine or an entire area.
The documents these standards require must be prepared by a professional legally qualified in Brazil and come with an ART, the registration of technical responsibility at CREA. A report signed abroad, even if technically sound, does not replace that responsibility.
The Consolidated Labour Laws (CLT) have specific chapters on electrical installations (arts. 179–181) and on machinery (arts. 184–186). Art. 200 gives the Ministry of Labour the power to issue detailed standards, including NR-10 (electrical installations and services) and NR-12 (machinery and equipment). NR-3 governs shutdowns and work stoppages in cases of serious and imminent risk.
