Electrical Requirements
NOTE:
GE Medical Systems requires a dedicated power and ground for the proper operation of its
Ultrasound equipment. This dedicated power shall originate at the last distribution panel before
the system.
Sites with a mains power system with defined Neutral and Live:
The dedicated line shall consist of one phase, a neutral (not shared with any other circuit), and a full
size ground wire (not shared with any other circuit) from the distribution panel to the Ultrasound outlet.
Sites with a mains power system without a defined Neutral:
The dedicated line shall consist of one phase (two lines), not shared with any other circuit, and a full
size ground wire (not shared with any other circuit) from the distribution panel to the Ultrasound outlet.
NOTE:
Please note that image artifacts can occur, if at any time within the facility, the ground from the
main facility's incoming power source to the Ultrasound unit is only a conduit.

Power Requirements
Electrical Specifications for LOGIQ A3.
2-2-3-1
Inrush Current
Inrush current is not a factor to consider due to inrush current limiting properties of the power supplies.
2-2-3-2
Site Circuit Breaker
It is recommended that the branch circuit breaker for the machine be ready accessible.
2-2-3-3
Site Power Outlets
A dedicated AC power outlet must be within reach of the unit without extension cords. Other outlets
adequate for the external peripherals, medical and test equipment needed to support this unit must also
be present within 1 m (3.2 ft.) of the unit. Electrical installation must meet all current local, state, and
national electrical codes.

DANGER
POWER OUTAGE MAY OCCUR.
The LOGIQ A3 requires a dedicated single branch circuit. To avoid circuit overload and
possible loss of critical care equipment, make sure you DO NOT have any other equipment
operating on the same circuit.
State: RELEASE - Document is released and under formal Change Control. Changes are subject to the ECR/ECO Process.
