e. Tags are labeled with the employee's name, the date the lock was applied and the name of the contractor the employee works for
f. Stored energy from springs, capacitors, pressurized piping, or suspended components is reduced to a zero energy state before work is performed
g. Tags and locks are only removed by the employee who installed them
h. Old tags are not reused unless designed for reuse
