The standard library has a section for work permit data. Data is listed by voltage level and type of equipment as shown in the picture below. See EasyPower Device Library for more information about the library.
Figure 1: Work Permit Library
To add a new work permit task to any equipment, select the voltage level first and the equipment type. Add the Work Task description in the empty row at the bottom. You will be able to enter other data in that row and a new row is automatically created.
