In this Application Note, Chroma Systems Solutions takes you through requirements for testing to IEC60601 standards for medical electronic equipment which include leakage current, dielectric breakdown, insulation resistance, and ground bond testing. There are also a number of US/UL, European/IEC/CB Scheme, and Canadian/CSA standards that serve as the ruling body on how medical products will be tested. To understand the differences in these test requirements and others, we will examine the purpose and techniques for each.
