When maintenance personnel are working on electrical equipment, all supply switches should be secured in the open position and tagged. Who specifically should perform the lock-out/tag-out procedure?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — person performing the repair
Lock-out/tag-out (LOTO) protocols mandate that the individual directly exposed to the hazard must apply their own lock and tag to ensure absolute personal control over the energy isolation device during maintenance.
