lockout Explanation: I believe they mean "lockout" as in "lockout-tagout" Please check the Wikipedia definition below. I've heard the word "consignment", but the meaning I'm familiar with is completely different (e.g. goods in consignment). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days44 mins (2016-12-02 16:57:32 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- You're welcome! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockout-tagout |
