[Viewed 537 times]

A lockout frame arrangement for an electrical outlet box arrangement, comprising an electrical outlet box arranged for receipt of electrical outlets, a cover plate attachable to an open side of the electrical outlet box, for securement of electrical sockets therewithin, with a rectilinear outer cover capturing frame securely sandwiched between the cover plate and the open side of the electrical outlet box. An outer protective cover plate is matingly attached to and securable within a perimeter of the outer cover capturing frame.

The three variations shown in the images offer an alternative solution to industrial safety lock-out plug containers. They are intended for use on various types of externally mounted electrical enclosures (typically ‘handy-boxes’) and would be typically used in applications where OSHA compliance is required. They feature a mounting plate that is incorporated as a “sandwiched” component into various types of electrical boxes. The mounting plate is inserted between the original box and cover, thereafter providing a permanent receiving platform for various types of covers or plug containment apparatus. These covers have a latching feature and can be used with or without a padlock.
