Martindale Electric has expanded its range of safe isolation products to include kits tailored specifically to the type of work being undertaken. This ensures workers have the right tools for cleaning, servicing or repairing electrical equipment while maintaining the highest safety standards.
Safe isolation procedures, including the use of lock-off kits, are essential to protect workers and prevent electrical circuits from being inadvertently re-energised. With an overwhelming number of individual lock-off devices on the market, choosing the right solution can be challenging. Martindale has simplified this decision by offering comprehensive kits designed for specific applications, ensuring electricians and engineers can implement safe isolation efficiently and effectively.
For domestic electrical installations, the LOKKITDOM kit includes essential items for safe isolation procedures, such as the Martindale LOK2 and LOK15 isolation locks, which are ideal for domestic distribution boards. All components are housed in a robust carry case. For installers working on a wider range of miniature circuit breakers (MCBs), the LOKKIT2PLUS kit includes four different MCB locks, providing compatibility with most standard systems.
Gas service engineers can rely on Martindale’s LOKKITGAS1, which features four essential locking-off devices for fused spurs and MCBs. For engineers requiring compliance with Gas Safe Technical Bulletin TB118, Martindale offers the TB118KITA kit, which includes not only lock-off devices, but also a voltage indicator and proving unit. The more comprehensive TB118KITB builds on this by adding an earth loop impedance tester, creating a complete solution for gas service engineers.
For commercial and industrial maintenance, the LOKKIT1 provides a 13-piece lock-out kit designed to meet the needs of professionals working in larger facilities. For even greater versatility, the LOKKITPRO has the most comprehensive range of Martindale locking-off devices, including options for cartridge fuse isolation, 13A plug locks, and cable locks. This makes it the ideal choice for contractors and maintenance teams operating in complex industrial and commercial environments.
Locking off circuits is a vital part of the safety process, but verifying the circuit is truly de-energised before starting any work is also critical. To address this, Martindale Electric offers kits that include everything needed for a complete safe isolation procedure, such as voltage indicators and proving units. These all-in-one kits simplify compliance with the Electricity at Work Regulations, making it easier for professionals to stay safe and ensure legal compliance.
By offering specialised lock-off kits for domestic, gas, commercial and industrial applications, Martindale Electric is setting a new standard in safe isolation solutions, providing electricians and engineers with the tools they need to work safely and efficiently.
