Tagout Devices

The typical kind of LOTO device for a generator is a
clam shell type device (with lockout capability). The
LOTO device is placed over the plug end of the gen-
erator electrical cord. This effectively prevents access
to the energy isolation point. See the example of one
such device in the figure above.
The figure to the right shows the lockout device in the
closed, locked position.
