Chassis (Enclosure) Leakage Test - Fluke ESA615 User Manual

Chassis (Enclosure) Leakage Test

The Chassis (Enclosure) Leakage test is only
available for the IEC60601 or ANSI/AAMI ES1
1993 standard selections.
The Chassis (Enclosure) Leakage Test measures the
current that flows between the enclosure of the DUT and
protective earth. Figure 21 shows the electrical
connections between the Product and the DUT.
To do a Chassis (Enclosure) Leakage Test:
1. Connect a lead between the V/Ω/A jack and the DUT
enclosure.
2. Push B.
3. Push the Chassis softkey from the Leakage Current
Test menu.
4. The measured current shows in the display.
The Chassis Leakage test can be done with different fault
conditions on the test receptacle. Push P to switch
the test receptacle between Normal, Off, Reverse, and
Off. Push N to open and close the neutral connection
to the receptacle. Push D to open and close the earth
connection of the receptacle.
The outlet conditions below apply when do this test:
•
Normal Polarity

IEC60601-1 specifies that the applied parts must be
connected for this measurement. Push E or F to ground
and unground all applied parts connection posts.
Chassis leakage for ANSI/AAMI is the same schematic
without the Applied Parts switch.
