White Papers

The Cost of a Single Accidental Operation – Published October 2026.

This paper looks at why unprotected control switches are a persistent weak point, what an accidental operation really costs, and why a physical engineering control does better than procedures and vigilance alone. It closes with what to look for in a control switch safety cover, and where covers fit within a facility’s broader safety and lockout/tagout (LOTO) program.
