Locking the Circuit Breaker

DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
When the circuit breaker toggle handle is locked in the (O) OFF position, always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off before working on equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Use locking accessories to lock the toggle handle in the I (ON) or O (OFF) position.

Accessory that is detachable
