LOK6 is now available from Martindale Electric a company specialising in voltage detectors and safe isolation.

LOK6 is a universal locking-off device for fuse carriers which is designed to restrict finger access to live contacts and prevent the reinsertion of a fuse whilst maintenance is in progress. It is ideally suited to Red Spot and other similar style fuse holders. It’s easily adjustable to fit fuse holders from 20A to 100A providing a 'one size fits all solution' improving safety and saving time sourcing the right device for the job.

Many Red Spot style fuse holders, which are still in widespread use today, are manufactured from materials which are not very durable and can fracture easily by the sharp grub screw found in many conventional MCB / Fuse lock-off devices. To offset this problem, the new LOK6 from Martindale Electric uses an effective clamp system to grip the wall of the Red Spot style fuse holder base, eliminating the possibility of damage.

THE LOK6 is suitable for use with a wide range of locking padlocks with wire shackles up to 7mm wire diameter. For added safety, Martindale Electric recommends utilising the insulated padlock PAD20R.

Also Available from Martindale Electric is a full range of locking off kits and accessories, including proving units and voltage indicators suitable for use in all installation categories up to 1000V CAT IV.
