2015 Photo of the Week #45 (Why VERIFICATION of LOTO is so critical)
This is an IMPROPERLY wired disconnect switch. Suspicions are that it was done on purpose so that management could not recognize the machine was still powered on while maintenance/servicing was taking place. But if ALL workers did not know about this and just turned the switch off and did NOT verify zero energy this could have led to a very serious accident. |
