ELECTRICAL SAFETY GAS PUMPING UNITS
Modern production continues to be a source of dangerous and harmful factors. The share of workers employed in adverse working conditions is still substantial. Ensuring the reliability and efficiency of operation of gas transmission companies and, in particular, the linear production department of main gas pipelines (LPUMG) is a prerequisite for sustainable development of the gas industry. The main technological objects are LPUMG linear compressor station (CS), sections of main gas pipelines certain extent. The most dangerous object in the territory of the compressor station are gas-compressor units, which are a source of harmful and dangerous production factors. The paper presents the main technological facilities LPUMG, dangerous and harmful production factors compressor stations, measures to protect workers from electric shock in case of insulation damage; calculated the loop placement earthing GPA. Considered measures to protect against electrical discharges of static and atmospheric electricity.
