When performing a lockout shutdown on a fuel train, does it need to be reset?

  1. No, it stays locked

  2. Yes, it needs to be reset

  3. Only in certain conditions

  4. Depends on the type of fuel

The correct answer is: Yes, it needs to be reset

When performing a lockout shutdown on a fuel train, it is necessary to reset the lockout condition. This practice ensures that the equipment is safe to operate after the maintenance or inspection work is completed. During a lockout, all energy sources are isolated and the equipment is rendered inoperable to protect workers from accidental re-energization. Once the maintenance has been concluded and it is deemed safe to return to operation, resetting the lockout is required to allow the normal functioning of the equipment. This reset process typically involves following specific steps outlined in the lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures to verify that the system is safe and that all safety measures have been observed.
