LOCKOUT / TAGOUT PROCEDURES
Lockout/Tagout is the placement of a lock/tag on an energy isolating device in
accordance with an established procedure. When taking equipment out of service to
perform maintenance or repair work, always follow the lockout/tagout procedures as
outlined in OSHA Standard 1910.147. This standard “requires employers to establish a
program and utilize procedures for affixing appropriate lockout devices or tagout
devices to energy isolating devices and to otherwise disable machines or equipment to
prevent unexpected energizing, start
-
up, or release of stored energy in order to
prevent injury to employees.”
HAZARD REVIEW
Electrocution Hazard
Electrocution accidents are most likely to occur during
maintenance of the electrical system or when working on or near
exposed high voltage wiring. This hazard does not exist when the
electrical power has been disconnected, properly locked, and
tagged out.
