What does "breaking into" mean in the following context? Many thanks!
Context:
"When breaking into transfer lines and during some other maintenance work, safety will rely on people following a number of steps in sequence. These should ensure that the worker is wearing suitable protective equipment and that the plant being worked upon is effectively drained and isolated."

打开
I would also suggest 开启 meaning to break open, or open up, but with all the new usage of 开启 in the IT industry, it's probably not a good idea.
我觉得主要的意思是中断操作, 把管道打开进行维修

Comment: "I think wherestip and Xiaoping are right in that “breaking into transfer lines” means 把输送管道拆开进行维修. Therefore, it is necessary for the transfer lines to be effectively drained and isolated before disassembly. I appreciate the suggestions and inputs from every one! Thank you all! "

: 分成一条一条? 拆掉 break up/down into sections/lengths. I don't think it is this.
