Frequently Asked Questions

What are lockout tagout accessories, and why are they important for workplace safety?

Lockout tagout accessories are supplemental devices used to enhance standard lockout/tagout procedures by securing equipment, energy sources, or access points that cannot be isolated with conventional devices alone. They are important because they help address complex or non-standard situations, reducing the risk of accidental startup or energy release and supporting safer maintenance operations in line with OSHA hazardous energy control requirements.

How do LOTO accessories support equipment isolation in industrial applications?

LOTO accessories support equipment isolation by providing flexible and adaptable solutions for securing multiple or irregular energy points. Devices like cable lockouts can isolate several controls at once, while specialized covers and plugs secure unique equipment configurations. This ensures that all relevant energy sources are effectively controlled during servicing, even in complex systems where standard lockout devices may not be sufficient.

What types of lockout tagout accessories are used for electrical and mechanical safety?

Common lockout tagout accessories include cable lockouts for multi-point isolation, plug lockout devices for electrical safety, drum locks for chemical containment, and lockout bags for oversized or irregular controls. Confined space covers are also used to restrict access to hazardous areas. These devices help secure both electrical and mechanical systems by preventing unintended operation and maintaining controlled access during maintenance.

When should LOTO accessories be used instead of standard lockout devices?

LOTO accessories should be used when standard lockout devices cannot adequately secure a piece of equipment or energy source. This includes situations involving irregular shapes, multiple isolation points, large plugs, or confined spaces. They are not replacements for primary devices but are used alongside them to ensure complete energy isolation and maintain effective control in more complex or non-standard applications.

How do lockout tagout accessories help ensure OSHA compliance and hazard control?

Lockout tagout accessories help support OSHA compliance by enabling more complete and effective energy isolation as required under 29 CFR 1910.147. They allow facilities to secure all relevant energy sources, including those that are difficult to access or isolate with standard devices. When used within a properly implemented lockout/tagout program, they help reduce risk, improve procedural consistency, and strengthen overall hazard control.

People Also Ask
How do you use a plug lockout device?

A plug lockout device keeps plugs from being inserted into an outlet, thus preventing an electric current from re-energizing a piece of equipment while under maintenance or repair. This protects workers from electrical shocks. 

To use, open the plug lockout and insert the plug inside the case. There are holes on both ends of the device that fits the diameter of the cord. Close the plug lockout over the plug, secure with a padlock, and tag accordingly. TRADESAFE offers medium and large plug lockout devices that can store up to two plugs.

What are the different types of plug lockout devices?

There are three types of plug lockout devices:

  • Plug lockout - This keeps the plug inside and prevents re-energization by disabling the plug from getting inserted into a wall outlet.
  • Lockout cinch sack cover - This is primarily used for oddly sized large connectors and hoist controls. This comes with a cinch top to close and holes for padlocks.
  • Power cord lockout – Compared to a plug lockout that keeps the plug inside the lockout device, a power cord lockout is directly inserted to the plug itself. It cannot be removed without a key, thus preventing the cord to be plugged into an outlet.
How do you use a cable lockout device?

Cable lockout is a versatile LOTO devices that’s often used in hard-to-reach locations or irregularly shaped energy devices because of its flexibility. Oftentimes, cable lockouts are made of steel cable or a non-conductive nylon cable. Nevertheless, they perform the same function. To use this lockout device, wrap the cable around the handles, switches, or controls of the device being locked out then run it back through the lockout body, cinch tightly, and secure with a padlock.  The cable is usually several feet long to accommodate various machineries and equipment.

What is a lockout and how is it avoided?

Lockout refers to the process of shutting down energy sources properly, exhausting all energy that may be left since the last machine operation, and then securely putting a lockout device to prevent unexpected re-energization. Lockout is the first half of a lockout tagout procedure, which is mandated by OSHA in most industries. It forms part of the LOTO program that aims to enforce workplace safety practices. Therefore, it cannot be avoided.

How many types of lockout and tagout are there?

There are different hazardous energy sources for every industry. Each energy source needs to be locked out properly during maintenance or repairs to avoid workplace accidents. As the industry evolves, the need to maintain workplace safety has also changed. To date, the common types of lockout and tagout devices include padlocks, valve lockouts, breaker lockouts, plug lockouts, lock boxes, hasps, safety tags, and danger tags. As technology advances every day, new lockout and tagout devices may be developed to accommodate the LOTO needs of various industrial workplaces.
