There are several good suggestions being proposed here. All have their own merits and pitfalls.
The device you choose should be selected after risk assessment. A lockout device similar to those made by Brady / Master Lock / Panduit are all good but can fall off.
A mechanical interlock similar to Kirk Key or Castell are a really robust approach but this is reflected in the price. They will need installing and become a permanent fixture on the host equipment.
A mechnical interlock, by its very nature interlocks one device with another. E.g. an isolating switch and a machine guard, thereby preventing entry to a hazardous area until power is isolated.
