Anyone who works with electrical installations as part of their job should be able to understand and apply the safe isolation procedure. This post explains what safe isolation is, the purpose behind it, and the steps involved in isolating an installation from a live supply.

What is Safe Isolation? All electrical installations must be isolated and proven dead before work can commence. Securely “disconnecting” (isolating) one or all parts of the installation from the live supply is called `Safe Isolation`.

Mar 9, 2022 · The use of appropriate test equipment and ancillary equipment such as lock off devices is essential. This article seeks to raise the awareness for already competent persons required to carry out safe isolation and provides guidance on how this can be safely carried out.

Nov 14, 2024 · Safe isolation is the process of ensuring that an electrical circuit or piece of equipment is completely de-energised before any work is carried out on it – and it includes making sure there is no chance of accidental re-energisation while work is going on.

Aug 30, 2022 · For increased efficiency, Martindale Electric has introduced complete safe isolation kits, bringing together all the necessary equipment to prove dead and lockout the circuit being worked on. Browse the Martindale safe isolation kits here

The Safe Isolation Kits provide the necessary tools to ensure safe isolation enabling work to commence. We currently offer a range of safe isolation kits from manufacturers such as Fluke, Di-Log, Kewtech, Lockout Lock, Martindale, Socket and See.
