What are the isolation and lock-off procedure or permit to work procedure that applies to the equipment being maintained?

The isolation and lock-off procedure, also known as the permit to work procedure, involves several key steps to ensure safety during maintenance. First, all energy sources to the equipment must be identified and isolated using appropriate lockout/tagout (LOTO) devices to prevent accidental re-energization. Next, a work permit is issued, detailing the scope of work, potential hazards, and safety measures required. Finally, the area is secured, and only authorized personnel are allowed to access the equipment until maintenance is completed and the permit is closed.
