Electrical Plug Lockouts

🔌 What Are Electrical Plug Lockouts?

- Electrical plug lockouts are safety devices designed to prevent electrical plugs from being inserted into outlets during maintenance or repair.
- They ensure circuits remain de-energized, eliminating risks of electric shock or unexpected machine startup.
- Typically made of durable, non-conductive plastics, these lockouts accommodate a wide variety of plug shapes and sizes.

⚙️ Common Applications

- Widely used across industrial, commercial, and residential environments to enforce Lockout-Tagout (LOTO) procedures.
- Ideal for maintenance tasks on machinery and equipment powered by standard or heavy-duty electrical plugs.
- Compatible with single- or multi-user workflows through multi-padlock designs for team safety.
