This includes industrial plugs and sockets, transformers and power supplies. **Step 2** - Locate the source of the power supply **Step 3** - Isolate the source of the power supply. Use an approved electrical safety padlock, labelled with 'Do Not Remove'  **Step 4** - An important step that may be overlooked by some is to use a proving device that shows your voltage testing tool is working effectively. By doing this you are removing any chance that your voltage testing tool may be faulty or its batteries may be dead, which could result in serious injury or death if that tool is used on a live circuit. **Step 5** - Now you can safely test that the power supply is isolated with your voltage tester. **Step 6** - Re-prove the voltage tester using the proving unit again.     ![](https://news.demesne.ie/hs-fs/hubfs/Martindale%20Electrical%20(1).jpg?width=794&height=1123&name=Martindale%20Electrical%20(1).jpg "Martindale Electrical (1).jpg")   [![MARTINDALE pdf.jpg](https://news.demesne.ie/hs-fs/hubfs/MARTINDALE%20pdf.jpg?width=802&name=MARTINDALE%20pdf.jpg)](https://info.demesne.ie/martindale-electric-electrical-safety-catalogue-request)   --- #### Tag: #### Share: - [Follow us on Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://news.demesne.ie/safe-isolation-for-your-electrical-safety) - [Follow us on Twitter](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https://news.demesne.ie/safe-isolation-for-your-electrical-safety&text=Safe%20Isolation%20For%20Your%20Electrical%20Safety) - [Follow us on Linkedin](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://news.demesne.ie/safe-isolation-for-your-electrical-safety) - [Follow us on Pinterest](http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://news.demesne.ie/safe-isolation-for-your-electrical-safety&text=Safe%20Isolation%20For%20Your%20Electrical%20Safetydescription=According%20to%20the%20Electrical%20Safety%20Foundation,%20construction%20workers,%20installation%20and%20maintenance%20professionals%20make%20up%20the%20majority%20of%20all%20electrical[...]&media=https://cdn2.hubspot.net/hubfs/2568919/electrical%20safety.png) --- #### [Choosing The Correct Flexible Conduit For Your Application Previous Post](https://news.demesne.ie/correct-flexible-condiut-industrial-applications) #### [Dehn Lightning & Surge Protection | Free eLearning & catalogue Next Post](https://news.demesne.ie/dehn-lightning-surge-protection-catalogue) ### Leave a Reply Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
