Lockout Tagout Process

Systematic approach to ensure safe energy isolation

Preparation

  • Identify energy hazards
  • Gather LOTO devices
  • Notify all personnel
  • Review repair scope

Isolation

  • Shut down equipment
  • Isolate energy sources
  • Apply locks and tags
  • Release residual energy

Verification

  • Confirm isolation
  • Test equipment state
  • Document LOTO process
  • Authorize repair start
