Aims & Scope
The International Journal of Electrical Safety Engineering is a peer-reviewed publication dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, innovation, and best practices in the domain of electrical safety. The journal aims to serve as a premier forum for disseminating high-impact research, technical developments, and practical insights that contribute to the prevention of electrical hazards and the promotion of safe engineering practices.
The journal’s scope is structured around three foundational pillars:
Risk-Informed Design and Hazard Mitigation
Emphasizing proactive and systematic approaches to electrical safety, this pillar focuses on methodologies that extend beyond regulatory compliance to incorporate risk assessment, predictive modeling, and safety-by-design principles.
Standards Integration and Field Implementation
Bridging the gap between evolving technical standards (e.g., IEEE, IEC, NFPA, EN, NEC, etc.) and real-world applications, this area explores the translation of regulatory frameworks into effective field practices, highlighting challenges, innovations, and lessons learned.
Human Factors and Behavioral Safety
Addressing the critical role of human behavior, organizational culture, and ergonomics in electrical safety, this theme investigates strategies to reduce human error, enhance training effectiveness, and foster a culture of safety.
These core themes will help establish a distinct identity within the broader engineering and safety communities.
The journal welcomes contributions from a multidisciplinary audience, including academic researchers, practicing engineers, safety professionals, regulatory bodies, educators, and students. Submissions should emphasize practical relevance, emerging risks, and the application of contemporary standards and technologies to real-world safety challenges.
By addressing the persistent gap between research, standards, and practice, the International Journal of Electrical Safety Engineering seeks to become a vital resource for advancing electrical safety across industries and disciplines.
