Can You Do an Arc-Flash Study in Brazil? Yes.
Most international clients reach out with two questions: Can you execute this power system study in Brazil? and Do you have the ETAP qualification? The answer to both is yes. I act as the local technical arm for companies abroad that have won or are bidding on Brazilian projects but need a qualified, ART-registered electrical engineer on the ground to perform and sign off the work.
- Yes — executed in Brazil, with ART registration and on-site capability where the project requires it.
- Yes — ETAP & SKM PTW, hands-on, for arc-flash, short-circuit and protection coordination modeling.
- Yes — billed in USD or BRL, whichever suits your contract.
What I Deliver as Your Local Partner in Brazil
- Arc-Flash incident energy studies (IEEE 1584:2018) with labels and PPE specification per NFPA 70E
- Short-circuit analysis (IEC 60909)
- Protection coordination and selectivity studies
- Full compliance with both international standards and the Brazilian framework (ABNT NBR 17227:2025, NR-10)
- Deliverables in the language and reporting format your end client requires
Why International Companies Choose This Partnership
Dual-standard fluency. Few engineers bridge IEEE/IEC/NFPA and the Brazilian ABNT/NR framework. Your project clears both your client’s spec and Brazilian regulators.
Software your spec demands. ETAP and SKM PTW — the tools international clients expect.
Proven at scale. 17 years in protection, short-circuit and arc-flash studies; active consultant on Petrobras projects.
Sector experience. Oil & Gas, Food & Beverage, Mining, Telecommunications & ICT, Agribusiness and Food Processing, and more.
Aligned to your workflow. Time zone UTC-3 (Brasília), available for video calls, fast scoping turnaround.
How a Partnership Works
- You share the scope — number of substations/panels/buses, voltage levels (LV/MV/HV), location in Brazil, deliverables expected, timeline, and the standards to apply.
- I prepare a detailed proposal — methodology, deliverables, timeline and pricing (USD or BRL).
- I execute and sign locally — ART-registered, to your client’s standard, in the reporting language you need.
- You deliver to your client — with a reliable Brazilian technical partner behind every project.
