Change maintenance position on points

Changing maintenance position on a point

Changing the Maintenance position on an Isolation point is usually done when Isolation list is Active and a worker discovers that the Maintenance position needs to be changed.

Change loop

Making a change to one of the isolation points will usually cause those points to need resigning and the list to need reapproval.

• The Change icon will only be visible when the Isolation list is in a status that is configured to show Change icon.

• After a position change, the list will need approval for the change and reactivation.

• Any signatures on the isolation point will disappear and need resigning.

Start position and maintenance position

The Positions column indicates the current status of the starting and maintenance positions.

• SP - Start Position

• MP - Maintenance Position

• NMP - New Maintenance Position

If you change the maintenance position, the new maintenance position is NMP - New Maintenance Position.

Guidelines

• There is no limit on the number of times the maintenance position can be changed. However, each time will cause the list to need re-approval.

• It is recommended to use a change loop in the workflow to approve changes to position.
