ABUS E222 Multi-Pole Circuit Breaker Lockout | Electrical Lockout Tagout Device

Secure Multi-Pole Circuit Breakers with Professional Lockout Protection

The ABUS E222 Multi-Pole Circuit Breaker Lockout is a high-performance electrical lockout tagout (LOTO) device designed to secure miniature and multi-pole circuit breakers during maintenance, servicing, repair, and installation work.

Engineered for industrial, commercial, and institutional electrical systems, the E222 prevents accidental re-energisation by physically locking circuit breaker switches in the OFF position. This helps protect workers from electrical shock, arc flash hazards, and unexpected equipment startup during maintenance activities.

The E222 is a universal solution for multi-pole breakers and is widely used by electricians, maintenance teams, and safety professionals across Canada.

What Is the ABUS E222 Used For?

The ABUS E222 is designed to secure multi-pole circuit breakers by engaging behind the switch mechanism and preventing the rocker switches from being moved back to the ON position.

Once installed and secured with a safety padlock, the breaker remains locked out until authorised personnel remove the device.

This makes the E222 an essential component of any lockout tagout electrical safety program.

Key Features

Secure Multi-Pole Circuit Breakers

The E222 locks directly into the breaker mechanism, preventing movement of multiple switch poles simultaneously.

Tool-Free Installation

A simple screw mechanism allows fast, secure installation without the need for additional tools—ideal for maintenance teams working under time constraints.

Supports Up to 2 Safety Padlocks

The device accommodates up to two padlocks, enabling shared control in group lockout situations where multiple workers are involved in maintenance.

Durable Non-Conductive Construction

Manufactured from high-quality, non-conductive materials, the E222 is designed for safe use in electrical environments and long-term industrial durability.

High-Visibility Safety Design

The bright red colour provides immediate visual indication that a circuit breaker has been locked out and must not be operated.

Why Use a Multi-Pole Circuit Breaker Lockout?

Electrical systems often involve multi-pole breakers that control higher voltage or multi-phase circuits. Without proper isolation, these systems present serious hazards during maintenance work.

The ABUS E222 helps prevent:

• Accidental energisation of electrical circuits

• Electrical shock and arc flash incidents

• Equipment damage during servicing

• Unsafe reactivation of maintenance circuits

Using a proper breaker lockout device is a critical part of any CSA-aligned lockout tagout procedure in Canada.
