Where supplies have been provided but equipment has yet to be fitted

37
Q

What are the seven considerations which must be conducted as part of the loto process?

A

All normal and alternative isolation points have been identified

Obtain permission from authorising technical rate

Equipment user and other personnel that may be affected are informed.
