The present invention pertains to the technological field of cooling compressors and, more specifically, relates to an anti-flame protection arrangement for the electrical connections of said cooling compressor. Problem to be solved: Ensure end-user safety of the compressor through a simple and inexpensive solution and preventing the maintenance and/or propagation of flames/fire in the region of the chamber defined by the protective cover of the electrical connections external to the compressor housing. Problem resolution: Accordingly, it is provided a cooling compressor including a protection arrangement for electrical connections integrated by a protective cover defining an electrical connections chamber external to the housing, the protective cover being physically associated with an anti-flame body, which defines a sealing portion, preferably making the electrical connections chamber hermetic in relation to an external environment.
