Lock out or tag out procedure
From the description of a lock-out procedure:
"La prise de contact avec un *isolateur* a-t-elle été effectuée en cas de besoin de consignation?"
"Vérification de la fiche de consignation avec l’*isolateur* désigné ?"
"L’émetteur de permis doit vérifier que la fiche de consignation est complétée et signé par l’isolateur et le témoin."
The context makes it clear that the "isolateur" is the person that locks out or tags out the equipmednt, but I am unable to find the right English equivalent.
All suggestions are welcome.

Termium is a site that backs up its translations with sources. That's what I found in "Occupation name". Hope it helps.
Note from asker:
| Thank you Lyne. I am not certain that the Termium reference applies in this case. Termium refere to thermal insulation. My case is quite different. |

: Your reference only refers to a specific case, but could not be extrapolated to a general situation. / It would be a translation error, since it does not convey the key meaning of the source term.

I think a disagree is harsh here, it may not be the best translation but it is not wrong per se. A neutral would be more appropriate since better has emerged I understand.

Reference:
LOTO
Lockout-tagout (LOTO) or lock and tag is a safety procedure which is used in industry and research settings to ensure that dangerous machines are properly shut off and not started up again prior to the completion of maintenance or servicing work. It requires that hazardous power sources be "isolated and rendered inoperative" before any repair procedure is started. "Lock and tag" works in conjunction with a lock usually locking the device or the power source with the hasp, and placing it in such a position that no hazardous power sources can be turned on. The procedure requires that a tag be affixed to the locked device indicating that it should not be turned on.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockout-tagout
All employees who are authorized to lockout machines or equipment and perform the service and maintenance operations need to be trained in recognition of applicable hazardous energy sources in the workplace, the type and magnitude of energy found in the workplace, and the means and methods of isolating and/or controlling the energy.
http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/controlhazardousenergy/index.html
Only authorized employees should provide worker training [29 CFR 1910.147 (c)(7)(I)]. Training must include the energy-control procedure uses and purposes, and all workers in the area where the energy-control procedures are used. When tagouts are used, employees must be taught of the devices' limitations.
http://www.google.de/#hl=de&tbo=d&rlz=1R2MXGB_deDE509&biw=12...
During lockout/tagout, a person authorized by the company places locks and/or tags on energy-isolating devices before working on equipment, and only that person can remove those locks and tags. Isolation devices are mechanical appliances, such as circuit breakers, used to stop energy from being released to the equipment. Lockout is usually accomplished with a keyed lock holding an isolating device in an “off” position. Tagout, which is often used when lockout can’t take place, uses tags to warn people that the equipment and isolating device may not be operated.
