electrical circuit breaker lockout/tagout

Description

This lockout device allows a DIN circuit breaker to be locked in the open circuit position to secure an intervention on an electrical circuit

It is designed to prevent any accidental re-energization during a maintenance, repair, or diagnostic operation

Once installed, the device locks the circuit breaker in the open circuit position and can be secured with a padlock

It can also be used to keep a faulty circuit de-energized, preventing someone from accidentally re-engaging the circuit breaker

Intended Use

This lockout is intended for:

• securing an intervention on an electrical circuit
• preventing accidental re-energization of a circuit breaker
• signaling and keeping a faulty circuit out of service
• completing an electrical lockout procedure

The device screws around the circuit breaker, then locks with a padlock

Safety Warning

Caution: this device must never be used to lock a circuit breaker in the engaged position

It must under no circumstances be used to force the passage of electric current, bypass a safety feature, keep a circuit energized, or prevent a circuit breaker from tripping

Use it only for its intended purpose: to keep a circuit de-energized during an intervention or in case of a fault

Before any electrical work, apply appropriate safety rules: power disconnection, verification of absence of voltage, lockout, signaling, and intervention by a competent person
