Lockout/Tagout Procedure 1
Introduction
Lockout/tagout is a safety procedure consisting of notifying affected
employees, turning off the system, unplugging the power source cord from the
electric outlet and placing a locked and tagged shield around the plug to
prevent it from being plugged in while the system is being serviced.
During normal operation, the system presents no hazards to its user or to
others in the area of its operation. In normal operation, enclosure panels and
shielding covers protect operators and other personnel working near the
system against electrical and other hazards that could arise from the operation
or failure of the system.
Only qualified service personnel are authorized to remove panels or covers. In
situations requiring service personnel to work near components that present a
potential electrical shock, the lockout/tagout procedure should be followed. In
addition to electrical hazards, some mechanical dangers such as pinch or
crush hazards can also be avoided through the lockout/tagout procedure.
