™ 3M PanelSafe Lockout System Frequently Asked Questions ™ What is PanelSafe? PanelSafe is a device, which is permanently mounted to the dead front of a circuit breaker panel that allows individual or multiple circuits to be locked off simultaneously. Why is it important to lock off circuits? OSHA, in its standard 1910.147, requires power to be locked off at the power source any time routine maintenance of equipment, lighting or machinery is being performed. The procedure is called lockout/tagout.
