1.6 Types of Leakage Current Measurement
18
Additions to IEC 60601-1:2005 3rd Edition
Patient leakage current is current that takes the following route: "metal accessible part not protectively
earthed
applied part
human body
Earth." Use this standard to measure medical equipment with
patient connection
of
applied parts
that are not protectively earthed (B-type or BF-type) and with metal
accessible parts that are not protectively earthed.
Instead of connecting damaged medical equipment to generate a
single-fault condition
, input a voltage
that is 110% of the rated voltage to metal accessible parts not protectively earthed. (Use the T3 terminal
on the instrument)
This test is not required for
CF-type applied parts
.
