The short answer: The ECED is a Turkish use that expresses the approach “Etiketle – Lockle – Get to Security – Experiment” and describes the logic of the LOTO (Lockout/Tagout) approach in the international field, distinguishing and verifying dangerous energy with a Turkish process expression.
What do ECED letters mean?
With label; makes the application and the responsible person visible; lock; prevents the reopening of the energy separation point with a personal security lock. take safety; control the energy stored or now. try; verify that the energy is really cut in the appropriate way.
Is it the same with Lotto?
Both expressions are aimed at preventing unexpected operation or hazardous energy discharge during maintenance and service. EKED is the Turkish use of the process; LOTO corresponds to the international term.
Is it used for electricity alone?
Electricity is assessed along with hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, thermal, chemical, landing and stored energy.
What is the purpose of ECED?
It’s not to stop the machine alone; it is to physically separate from energy sources, take the separation points to guarantee and verify the zero-energy state before starting to work.
