(ELP) Template
ENVIRONMENT, SAFETY & HEALTH DIVISION Product ID: 443 | Revision ID: 1758 | Date Published: 1 August 2015 | Date Effective: 1 November 2015
URL: http://www-group.slac.stanford.edu/esh/eshmanual/references/coheTemplateELP.docx

This equipment-specific lockout procedure (ELP) template meets SLAC Control of Hazardous Energy (CoHE) program requirements
for an ELP. SLAC groups who develop their own ELP template must meet specifications set forth in Control of Hazardous Energy:
General Requirements (SLAC-I-730-0A10S-004).

The template includes the following required sections:


 Approvals page (includes names of preparer, reviewer, approver, and inspector who revalidates)
 Section A: Procedure Purpose
 Section B: Equipment Description
 Section C: Hazardous Energy Schematic Showing Isolation Points
 Section D: Hazardous Energy Assessment
 Section E: Preparation and Notification
 Section F: Steps for Controlling Hazardous Energy Identified in Section D
 Section G: Steps to Return to Service
 Section H: Designated Authorized Workers
 Section I: ELP Permit

To use this template to create an ELP


1. Save the file to your workspace, renaming it
2. Edit the following document properties (File>Properties>Advanced Properties) (Title is under the Summary tab, rest under
Custom; to edit Custom properties, click on the name then edit in the Value box):
1. Title to that of the procedure; include the name of the equipment and location (“ELP for xxx”)
2. Office to the name of your organizational unit
3. SLACDocNum and SLALRevNum to the document and revision numbers used by your organization. If you do not know
about these, leave as is.
4. DatePublished and DateEffective to the dates the revision of your procedure is published, and becomes effective
3. Delete ProductID, RevisionID, and URL from the top of this page
4. Update the fields (Ctrl-A, F9), then preview the file (File>Print); this updates the headers and footers

E-mail ESH Publishing (eshpubs@slac.stanford.edu) if you need help.

D. Hazardous Energy Assessment


Evaluate the equipment for all hazardous potential energy sources in accordance with the Control of Hazardous Energy: Hazard Analysis Procedure (SLAC-I-730-0A10C-002), and check the left
hand box if present. For each, describe the type and magnitude/type, danger zone (the part(s) of the equipment where the energy is found), and isolation points. Insert additional rows as needed
to completely describe all sources to be controlled.
Note: describe in Section F how to control each identified hazardous energy source.
Types of Energy Type / Magnitude Danger Zone Isolation Point(s)
Electrical

Chemical: explosion, pressure, extreme heat,


fire, corrosive, reactive, oxidizer, toxic, etc.
Required: Consult an ES&H subject matter
expert.

Pressure : hydraulic, pneumatic

Vacuum

Mechanical: capable of crushing, pinching,


cutting, snagging, striking

Thermal: high temperature-surface temperature,


hot liquids, steam

Thermal, cryogenic: super cold surface or


cryogenic liquid

Radiation, ionizing

Radiation, non-ionizing: ultra-violet, infra-red,


RF/Microwave, laser, magnetic

Stored energy: flywheel, springs, differences in


elevation, capacitors, batteries, etc.

Emergency power: does equipment maintain an


emergency power /uninterruptible power supply?

Other: describe

E. Preparation and Notification


1. If required by the equipment owner or equipment custodian, identify which authorized workers are pre-approved to implement this procedure.
Record in Section H.

2. Notify
Before starting work, notify the equipment custodian and all affected workers of the lockout.
Also notify the equipment custodian(s) of any associated or affected equipment.
3. Shut down equipment
(describe steps to safely shutdown equipment)

(provide photos to demonstrate shutdown devices)

4. Test equipment (if required)


If any equipment testing will be required during or after service and/or
maintenance, describe how it will be achieved in a safe manner.

Important: zero energy verification (ZEV) is required if equipment will be locked and
tagged after testing.

F. Steps for Controlling Hazardous Energy Identified in D


Important: for work that could expose the worker(s) to electrical conductors or circuit parts (that is, work within a shock or arc flash protection
boundary), zero voltage verification (ZVV) must be performed by a qualified electrical worker as described in Control of Hazardous Energy: Zero
Voltage Verification Procedure (SLAC-I-730-0A10C-004).

Energy source description:


Isolate:
Control:
Dissipation:
Verify zero energy state appropriate to the type of hazardous energy involved:

G. Steps to Return to Service


1. Verify equipment and area is clear of tools, workers, equipment, materials, and debris.
2. Unlock and remove any blocking devices; remove linkages.
3. Reposition any safety devices, guards, interlocks.
4. Warn workers to stay clear of area.
5. Remove all locks and tags for energy control points.
6. Verify affected areas are clear of personnel.
7. Re-energize the equipment. Note: be certain to consider effects of re-energization on all systems downstream of energy source.
8. Notify supervisor when work is complete.
9. If you find any errors in this procedure, or have suggestions on how to improve it, provide your comments to the equipment custodian.

I. ELP Permit
The lead authorized worker signature indicates that the lockout is complete and the system is safe for work.

Continuity of protection: The lead authorized worker must lock on and sign on before start of any work under this ELP,
and must stay locked on until all work is complete and all authorized workers have locked off and signed off. If a group
lockbox is used, the lead authorized worker must apply a group lockout master lock to the group lockbox. The group
lockout master lock is applied before start of any work, and must remain locked on until all work is complete and all
authorized workers have locked off.

If necessary, lead authorized worker duties may be reassigned to another authorized worker. All workers performing work
under this ELP must be informed of the reassignment.

Lead authorized worker(s) Lock on Lock off


(print name) (signature and date) (signature and date)
