restricting access


Explanation:
..to the test area, if it a normal situation. After all, the testers may still need to enter at some point in time. If it is an electrical test area, it is usually enclosed by a fence, at least, and a warning light is mounted at the gate *(at least) that restricts access to tthe area when power turned on.
