Requirements Procedure Workers have the authority to and are responsible for stopping and/or correcting work if lackout procedures are not being followed. If vapor sensors will be disarmed, deactivate only the sensors being worked on, 1, Identify and locate all potential energy sources to be isolated: a. Review the scope of work b, Review drawings if applicable ‘c. Visually inspect the equipment components being worked on to verify drawings NOTE: It may be necessary to access equipment compartments 10 verify potential energy sources. 2. Notify affected workers that a lockout will be in effect and explain the reason for the lockout. 3. Shut down operating equipment. 4. Isolate equipment from its energy source by operating the switch, valve or other energy-isolating device. NOTE: For information on isolating specific types of high-voltage electrical equipment, see 07-03-01 De-energizing or Switching High-Voltage Equipment 5. Relieve, disconnect or restrain potentially hazardous stored or residual energy. + For electrical energy, locate and open the correct electrical disconnect switch ot other similar device (see 07-03-01 De-energizing or Switching High-Voltage Equipment). © For mechanical energy (c.g., rotating couplings or elevated equipmert parts), disconnect or block equipment. © Forthermal, chemical, flammable, pneumatic or hydraulic energy in lines or piping: a. Close valves. b. . Disconnect, and drain, and purge and/or vent lines. ¢. Install isolating blanks or blinds. Page 2013 sty 31, 200806-03-01 BOOKZ Locking Qut Equipment—Standard Procedure Records 6. Lock and tag the equipment. NOTE: Do not use tags without locks unless equipment is physically incapable of being locked out. Verify the lockout by confirming that eneray sources have been isolated and locked out. (Operate the pushbutton or other normal operating control to ensure equipment will not operate.) 8. Proceed with maintenance, ‘or restoration procedures, see 06-03-02 Restoring Locked Oui Equipment NOTE: For information on retuming high-voltage equipment to service, see 07-03-04 Re-energizing High-Voltage Equipment. Electrical Equipment Isolation/Clearance Form {f the lockout involves electrical equipment, use the Electrical Equipment Isolation/Clearance Form where required and retain onsite for a minimum of 2 years.
