Lockout Protection

Many serious accidents have occurred due to a machine being started when it should have been completely shut off for maintenance or repair. These incidents are typically caused by energy that was not released correctly. Lock-out tag-out (LOTO) systems can prevent these incidents by ensuring that machines are completely off until the person who is authorized releases them.
The LOTO system is made up of a number of locks, tags and other devices to secure, isolate the device from an electric source. All "affected", "authorized" and "qualified" personnel must be taught about the use of these devices. These devices include, but aren't restricted to chains, locks and padlocks. Each device is uniquely identified and labeled, containing the date and time of the application along with the name of the person authorized and the reason for the lockout/tag-out (repair or maintenance, for example). It should be clear that these devices cannot be removed until a thorough LOTO procedure has been followed.
