Explanation
Manual testing according to
VDE 0751-1
is used for tests of
medical electrical devices
(med. electr. test samples)
after repair or
modification and for periodic testing.
Periodic testing may only be carried out after possible faults have
been eliminated.
Chapter 13.4 provides a general description of how medical
electrical test samples can be tested individually.
Depending on the protection class of the medical electrical test
sample, the
ST 760/ ST 755
offers preconfigured individual tests.
Specification, selection and order of the individual tests
are determined by the responsible qualified electrician.
Applicable regulations can be found in the current
VDE/ IEC standard and the existing manufacturer
specifications of the test sample.
