Performing a Patient Leakage Test
Note
The Patient Leakage Current Test is not
available for IEC 62353 or IEC 61010 standard
selections.
The Patient-Leakage Current test measures the current
flowing between a selected applied part, selected group
of applied parts, or ALL applied parts, and the Mains PE.
Figure 21 shows the electrical connections between the
Analyzer and the DUT.
To perform a patient leakage test:
1. Press .
2. Press the soft key labeled More.
3. Select one of the applied part groupings by pressing
 or .
Note
Refer to the testing standard when deciding the
type of the applied parts and how they should be
grouped for testing.
4. Press the soft key labeled Select.
5. Press  or  to advance through each applied part
grouping, or the individual applied parts, to ground.
These are selected and measured.
The Patient Leakage test can be performed with a
number of fault conditions on the test receptacle. Press
 to switch the test receptacle between Normal, Off,
Reverse, and Off. Press  to open and close the
neutral connection to the receptacle. Press  to
open and close the receptacle’s earth connection.
