The International Symposium on Electrical Safety is a scientific event that aims to improve health and safety standards for professionals in the electricity sector. The XV SISE is hosted by the Section member CIER (Commission for Regional Energetic Integration in Latin America and the Caribbean), it’s Central American Committee CECACIER as well as the ISSA Electricity Section. The purpose is to share the latest global innovations in electrical safety.
