We had a loto review today and it is suppose to be osha complient. The training consisted of
locking out the main power to equipment, putting locks and chains on valves which is all good. It was a mock example of how to lock out equipment when replacing a water pump. There was n't any electrical testing of any equipment at all. Is it because there wasn't any electrical work being
done ? Or is it a differrent loto procedure that osha approves? Thanks for any help.
Is there any example of any electrical safety program that I can review online?

Unless you have are interacting with the electrical, you do not need to test it. For mechanical LOTO, basically all that is required is to test the equipment by seeing if it starts.
