Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

(OP)
Does anyone have a reference book or dvd that can be recommended to teach someone how to make a LOTO plan using P&ID's. This may be a combination of P&ID tranings as well but ultimately my end goal is to be able to mark up a P&ID for any piece of equipment found on a P&ID for a chemical processing plant. Any assistance is appreciated.

RE: Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

Please define LOTO

prognosis: Lead or Lag

Lockout Tagout

RE: Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

A P&ID may not give all the information you need to safely lock something out. Electrical energy, energy in springs and weights are a few things that come to mind.

RE: Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

You need to tag the valves and gives numbers which need to be put on PID's

RE: Learning LOTO plans using P&IDs

make sure that all the valves (whether control, on-off, relief, isolation) whatsoever the size is should be tagged. apart from this i do not think there is LOTO things you need to include in your P&ID. LOTO procedure is usually a standard safety procedure available with all companies and also mentioned in the safety pages of the equipment operation and maintenance manual.
