What is a dead man control and how does it work related to sandblasting?

A dead man control is a switch that is held in one hand, and which is activated if you stop holding it (when you are no longer pressing on the switch). If you were to suddenly die (or lose consciousness) you would necessarily lose your grip on the switch. This is a useful precaution for sandblasting because the sandblaster is a very powerful device, which could do tremendous harm if it were to point in the wrong direction. So, since it is possible that you might have a heart attack, a stroke, an epileptic seizure or some other medical problem while sandblasting, if you use a dead man switch, you can set it to turn off the sandblaster if you release the switch, which will protect people in your vicinity if you do suffer any loss of consciousness while sandblasting.

What is isolator with earth switch?

A disconnector or isolator switch is used to make sure that an electrical circuit can be completely de-energised for service or maintenance. Such switches are often found in electrical distribution and industrial applications where machinery must have its source of driving power removed for adjustment or repair. High-voltage isolation switches are used in electrical substations to allow isolation of apparatus such as circuit breakers and transformers, and transmission lines, for maintenance. Often the isolation switch is not intended for normal control of the circuit and is used only for isolation; in such a case, it functions as a second, usually physically distant master switch (wired in series with the primary one) that can independently disable the circuit even if the master switch used in everyday operation is turned on.Isolator switches have provisions for a padlock so that inadvertent operation is not possible (see: Lockout-Tagout). In high voltage or complex systems, these padlocks may be part of a trapped-key interlock system to ensure proper sequence of operation. In some designs the isolator switch has the additional ability to earth the isolated circuit thereby providing additional safety. Such an arrangement would apply to circuits which inter-connect power distribution systems where both end of the circuit need to be isolated.The major difference between an isolator and a circuit breaker is that an isolator is an off-load device intended to be opened only after current has been interrupted by some other control device. Safety regulations of the utility must prevent any attempt to open the disconnector while it supplies a circuit.Standards in some countries for safety may require either local motor isolators or lockable overloads (which can be padlocked).
