Cable

A cable lockout is a flexible, versatile safety tool used to secure multiple energy isolation points or lock out equipment with complex mechanisms. Made of a durable steel or nylon cable attached to a locking mechanism, it’s threaded through lockout points, tightened, and locked to prevent re-energization during maintenance.

Purpose

This device is ideal for:

  1. Securing Multiple Points: Perfect for equipment with various energy sources, like electrical panels, valves, and mechanical levers.
  2. Adapting to Irregular Shapes: Its flexibility allows it to wrap around objects or handles that other devices can’t secure.
  3. Enhancing Safety: Physically blocks access to switches or valves, preventing accidental activation and keeping maintenance personnel safe.

How It Works

  1. Choose Material and Length: Steel provides durability; nylon is lightweight and non-conductive. Length depends on how many points need securing.
  2. Threading Through Points: Insert the cable through lockout points, pull tight, and lock in place.
  3. Securing with a Padlock: Once in position, secure the cable with a padlock through the lock mechanism and add a tag to indicate who applied it and why.

Applications

  • Electrical Panels: Secures multiple breakers or switches in one step.
  • Valves and Controls: Locks various types of valves or control levers.
  • Industrial Equipment: Great for large machinery needing simultaneous isolation of multiple points.

In summary, a cable lockout is an adaptable LOTO solution for securing multiple sources and irregular mechanisms, ensuring worker safety during maintenance.
