Low Voltage Permit to Work
This low voltage permit to work template helps organizations plan and authorize electrical tasks safely. Capture permit details, scope of work, location, dates, and special conditions. Document access control and safety precautions including lock off, safe isolation, proving dead and test instruments used, earthing, and warning notices. The form includes declarations for the authorized person issuing the permit and the competent person accepting it, with names, positions, signatures, and timestamps. A closure section confirms work completion and withdrawal of personnel and equipment. Developed with reference to BS7671, this template supports consistent control of electrical work but should be reviewed for suitability to your site and jurisdiction.

This safety work permit template helps you control high risk work by formalizing request, review, and authorization. It guides supervisors and permit authorities through documenting the work activity, identifying high risk tasks such as hot work, confined space, excavation, plant isolation, work at heights, and live electrical work, and confirming risk assessments and controls are in place. Capture names, dates, approvals, and signatures, register the permit, and communicate scope and supervision requirements. Use it to verify controls before start of work, monitor hazards during the job, and close out with final sign off.

Electrical Testing and Inspection Permit
This Electrical Testing and Inspection Permit template helps control and authorize electrical work on site. It guides permit issuers and holders through key checks such as panel labeling, presence of covers and guards, isolation and lockoff of incomplete circuits, signage in work areas, and photographic evidence of panel condition. It captures RAMS review and approval, key sign-out, permit holder details, and contact time stamps. The workflow includes declaration of responsibility, signatures for receipt and clearance, confirmation that areas are locked off and keys returned, and formal cancellation. Clear responsibilities for the permit holder emphasize restricting access, maintaining key control, housekeeping, communication with other permit holders, and returning the permit and keys to the authorized person at the permit office upon completion.
