Why Lockout Tagout Matters
Lockout tagout is the standard procedure used worldwide to control hazardous energy. It ensures that machinery and electrical circuits are properly shut off and cannot be switched back on until work is safely completed.
Without an effective LOTO system in place, workers are exposed to the risk of accidental start-ups, electrical shocks, and serious injury — all of which can lead to costly downtime, damage to equipment, legal penalties, and, worst of all, preventable harm to people on site.
Cableaway’s range of lockout devices and accessories are built to help Australian businesses meet their obligations under WHS regulations, reduce risk, and create safer worksites for everyone involved.
Our Complete Lockout Range
- Circuit Breaker Lockout Devices
Our circuit breaker lockout devices are designed to physically secure the breaker in its ‘off’ or ‘tripped’ position. Made from tough, reinforced nylon or aluminium, they prevent accidental re-energisation of electrical circuits while maintenance or repairs are underway.
Available in various styles, our lockouts fit a wide range of single-pole and multi-pole breakers, ensuring that, regardless of the brand or size of your board, we have a solution to keep it safely isolated.
A lockout device is only as secure as the padlock that holds it in place. Cableaway safety padlocks are built specifically for lockout applications — with durable, non-conductive materials, unique key systems, and clear identification labels.
Our padlocks ensure that only authorised personnel can remove a lockout device, preventing unauthorised or accidental removal that could put workers at risk. With various keying options available, you can set up an effective lockout plan for any site size.
When multiple workers need to work on the same equipment or circuit, lockout hasps ensure that complete control is maintained. A hasp allows several padlocks to be attached to a single isolation point, ensuring that each worker has their own lock.
The equipment remains locked out until every worker has removed their padlock, adding a vital extra layer of safety and accountability to your LOTO procedures.
Not all equipment can be isolated using a standard device alone. For complex machinery, multiple breakers, or hard-to-reach valves, Cableaway cable lockouts provide the flexibility you need.
A durable, high-visibility cable can be looped through multiple energy isolation points, then pulled tight and locked in place with a padlock. This makes cable lockouts ideal for securing unusual or grouped energy sources with a straightforward device.
A lockout device without a tag leaves critical safety information unspoken. Our lockout tags indicate that equipment is isolated, who locked it out, and the reason for the lockout. Made from tear-resistant, weatherproof materials, Cableaway lockout tags remain readable in challenging site conditions and help ensure everyone is aware of the status of a locked-out circuit or machine.
Proper tagging not only keeps your team informed, but it also supports compliance with Australian LOTO standards and reinforces a strong culture of safety and accountability on-site.
