Many serious accidents have occurred because a machine started up when it was supposed to be completely off for repairs or maintenance. These accidents are usually the result of energy that hasn't been released correctly. Lock-out tag-out (LOTO) systems help to prevent these accidents by making sure that the machines remain off until a person authorized releases them.
The LOTO system is comprised of a number of locks, tags, and other devices used to isolate, secure the machine from an electric source. All "affected" and "authorized" personnel must be educated on the use of these lockout/tag-out devices. These devices include but not restricted to chains, locks, padlocks, wedges, adapter pins, and self-locking fasteners. Each device is identified and labelled, including the date and time it was used along with the name and title of the person who is authorized, and the purpose of the lockout/tagout (repairs maintenance, repairs, etc.). It must be stated clearly that these devices can't be removed until a thorough LOTO procedure is followed.
