1. What OSHA regulation or ANSI regulation defines the use of emergency stop functions?
2. Can emergency stop buttons be shrouded?

I thank anyone that can help with question. I have been searching for awhile now, but have not found the right place.
Please take care and thanks in advance,

NFPA 79 section 13 will tell you everything you need to know about e-stops. You can shroud them but never over the top. Let me know if you need further assistance.
