The objective of this work is to propose and apply a methodology to obtain the cost of industrial process shutdowns due to voltage sag and short interruption. A field survey, aided by a specific questionnaire, was carried out in several industries connected to medium voltage networks, in the states of Espírito Santo and São Paulo in Brazil. The results obtained were the costs per event and the costs per demand in a total of 33 companies in 12 different types of activities. It is noteworthy that this survey brings a relevant technical contribution to the electricity sector, helping to fill, even partially, an existing gap in both national and international literature.
