Both kits include locking-off devices for standard MCBs (miniature circuit breakers) and the miniature Lok10 and Lok11 for when access is limited and there is not enough space for a conventional lock.

The kits include a Pad10R padlock with a unique key, a marker pen and tags to ensure immediate and clear identification of circuits, work areas and personnel. For added safety, each lock is supplied with just one key to ensure a circuit cannot be inadvertently unlocked.

These kits for provide locking-off solutions for applications from MCCBs with integrated test buttons through old-style fuse holders, to switchgear requiring a cable-lock approach.
