Note: Earth leakage current is measured under various conditions of the AC mains and

protective earth conductor. For each condition, the measured leakage current

must not exceed that indicated in Table 3.

3.4.2.2 Enclosure Leakage Current

This test is in compliance with IEC60601-1 enclosure leakage current. This test is for

ungrounded enclosure current, measured between enclosure parts and earth. The applied

voltage for IEC60601-1 the applied voltage is 264 Volts AC at 50 to 60 Hz.

1. Connect the monitor AC plug to the electrical safety analyzer as recommended by the

analyzer operating instructions.

2. Place a 200 cm

contact with any metal parts of the enclosure that may be grounded.

3. Measure the leakage current between the foil and earth.

Note: The analyzer leakage current indication must note exceed the values listed in

Table 4.

3.4.2.3 Patient Leakage Current

This test measures patient leakage current in accordance with IEC60601-1, clause 19,

for Class I, Type CF equipment. Patient leakage current in this test is measured from any

individual patient connection to earth (power ground).

1. Configure the electrical safety analyzer as recommended by the analyzer operating

instructions.

2. Connect the monitor's AC mains power cord to the analyzer as recommended by the

analyzer operating instructions.
