At a minimum, these should include the industrial safety requirements established by:
1. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Title 29 of the CFR
Section 1910.212- General Requirements for all Machines
2. National Fire Protection Association, ANSI/NFPA 79

Attention:
Servicing energized industrial equipment can be hazardous. Severe injury or death can result from electrical
shock, burn, or unintended actuation of controlled equipment. Recommended practice is to disconnect and lockout
industrial equipment from power sources, and release stored energy, if present. Refer to the National Fire Protection
Association Standard No. NFPA70E, Part II and (as applicable) OSHA rules for Control of Hazardous Energy Sources
(Lockout-Tagout) and OSHA Electrical Safety Related Work Practices, including procedural requirements for:
•
Lockout-tagout
•
Personnel qualifications and training requirements
•
When it is not feasible to de-energize and lockout-tagout electrical circuits and equipment before working on or near
exposed circuit parts
Locking and Interlocking Devices:
These devices should be checked for proper working condition and capability of
performing their intended functions. Make replacements only with the original manufacturer’s renewal parts or kits.
Adjust or repair in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Periodic Inspection:
Industrial equipment should be inspected periodically. Inspection intervals should be based on
environmental and operating conditions and adjusted as indicated by experience. At a minimum, an initial inspection
within 3 to 4 months after installation is recommended. Inspection of the electrical control systems should meet the
recommendations as specified in the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) Standard No. ICS 1.3,
Preventative Maintenance of Industrial Control and Systems Equipment, for the general guidelines for setting-up a
periodic maintenance program.
Replacement Equipment:
Use only replacement parts and devices recommended by the manufacturer to maintain the
integrity of the equipment. Make sure the parts are properly matched to the equipment series, model, serial number, and
revision level of the equipment.
