Hospital Electrical Safety and Maintenance guarantees electric safety to the people and the instruments within Health Care Establishments, mainly preventing accidents related to electric shock. The incorporation of modern electrical equipment has revolutionized health care services, benefiting diagnosis and treatment of weaknesses. Despite the benefits, technological advances progressively increase instruments' technical complexity, subjecting increasingly patients and operators over higher risk situations. To certificate and preserve electrical safety, it is necessary to adapt a couple of maintenance and safety parameters to regulatory requirements, including protection devices and measures to safe applied to infrastructures, electrical installations, equipment, machines, appliances and procedures. There are many and extensive rules, regulations and laws on the subject, making it difficult to fully understand and apply all the requirements. The purpose of this paper was to gather such files, revise them and develop a less technical and more general, illustrative and demonstrative document aiming to assist EAS managers and Clinical and Hospital Engineers in a correct application and management of the several actions which involve Hospital Electrical Safety and Maintenance, ensuring instruments’ life longevity and quality to their functional performance, as well as protection to patients, medical and technical staff and third parties. This document was divided in four chapters, from generality to technical safety specifications, applied to installations and equipment.
