10-8-7 Type CF Patient Leakage Current Test - ECG Leads
10-8-7-1 Definition
This test measures the current which would flow to ground from any of the isolated ECG leads. The
meter simulates a patient who is connected to the ECG equipment and is grounded by touching some
other grounded surface. Measurements should be made with the ground open and closed, with power
line polarity normal and reversed, and with the neutral open and closed. For each combination, the
operating controls, such as the lead switch, should be operated to find the worst case condition.
10-8-7-2 Generic Procedure
Measurements should be made with the ground open and closed, with power line polarity normal and
reversed, and with the neutral open and closed. For each combination, the operating controls, such as
the lead switch, should be operated to find the worst case condition.
