FAQ - Hasps

Hasps off several key benefits when user as part of a LOTO procedure:

  1. Hasps have multiple locking points, allowing several workers to apply their padlocks to the same hasp. This is essential for group LOTO, ensuring that multiple team members are aware of and involved in the lockout process.
    Hasps are designed to securely immobilize switches, valves, or other control points. This physical barrier ensures that equipment cannot be unintentionally activated during maintenance protecting workers from potential hazards.
  2. Multiple padlocks on a hasp establish accountability, as each worker involved in the LOTO procedure is responsible for their own lock. This discourages unauthorized access and reinforces safety protocols.
  3. Hasps are user-friendly and straightforward to apply and remove, and can be applied on different types of equipment, making them a versatile and cost-effective solution for lockout procedures.

Switzerland has established legal provisions governing the Lockout-Tagout procedure (LOTO):
Ordinance to the Labor Act (ArGV 3): This ordinance sets forth comprehensive guidelines for occupational health and safety. It mandates that employers are responsible for ensuring the safety and well-being of their employees. Under the ArGV framework, employers are obligated to implement suitable safety measures to prevent workplace accidents and protect employees' health.

Low Voltage Installation Standard (NIN): Recognized as a pivotal technical standard within the electrical installation sector in Switzerland, the NIN establishes crucial safety protocols and requirements. It plays a significant role in ensuring the safe operation of electrical systems and installations across the country.

In the EU guidelines 89/655 stipulate the basic requirements on employee health and safety when handling industrial equipment. Additionally EN 1037 dwells on procedures to deal with energy isolation and dissipation to prevent hazardous equipment from being re-energised, and safely clear a risk-prone area for use.

Hasps are an inexpensive but essential part of any LOTO procedure and strategy when maintenance work on electrical systems is being performed. Hasps pricing is dependant on the size, type of material used and number of user points available on the hasp.
