- Page 14 • 100% Tie Off Considerations: Energy absorbing Y-type, twin leg or double lanyards can be used to provide continuous fall protection while moving. The worker can move to a new location while one lanyard leg is attached. Attach the free (unused) lanyard leg, then disconnect the attached leg.
- Page 15 Special applications exist where it may be permissible. Contact Malta Dynamics if considering connecting an energy absorbing lanyard to a self-retracting lifeline. Knots: Knots of any kind are not approved in lanyards. Strength is drastically reduced by tie-offs using knots, tying around sharp edges, etc. Tie-offs using a knot in a rope lanyard (at any location) reduces the lanyard strength by 50 percent or more.
