Figure 20. Leakage Current Main Menu

Note

The display shown in Figure is the main leakage
current menu when AAMI is the standard.

All leakage currents but Lead Isolation (Mains on Applied
parts), are shown in as AC+DC, AC Only, or DC only. The
initial result is shown in the applicable parameter for the
set test standard. To change the parameter, push  or .
The measurement method is shown to the right of the
current measurement while leakage current tests are
done.

Earth Leakage Current

Note

The Ground Wire (Earth) Leakage test is
available for AAMI, 60601, and not IEC 62353.

To measure the current that flows in the protective earth
circuit of the DUT, push the Ground Wire softkey from the
leakage current main menu. Figure shows the electrical
connections between the Product and the DUT when you
do a Ground Wire Leakage Current Test.
The Ground Wire Leakage Current test has some
combination measurements that can be done. Push

to switch the polarity of the mains voltage applied

to the test receptacle between Normal, Off, Reverse, and
Off. Push  to open and close the neutral connection
to the test receptacle. It is not necessary to open up the
test receptacle earth (ground), since this is done internally
by the measurement.
