Sequence of Lockout/Tagout Procedure:

Locate and identify all isolating devices. More than one energy source (electrical, steam, etc.) may be involved.

Notify the COR that a lockout/tagout system is going to be used.

Shut down the equipment normally.

1. Operate energy isolating device (switch, valve, etc) to isolate the equipment from the energy source. Using safe management practices, ensure any energy that may be stored in the equipment is dissipated. Attempt to start the equipment using the normal technique. If the equipment does start, determine where the energy is coming from and why the isolating device did not work. After the equipment is truly isolated, make certain all starting devices are in the “off” position. If more than one person will be working on the equipment they should each have their own lock.

2. After work is complete, ensure all personnel are safely out of the way, all tools are removed, all safety guards are in place, and the equipment is safe to operate. Each individual who worked on the equipment should remove their own lock.
