Leakage 1a - This leakage test, specified by the IEC as Active Electrode to Ground, is for testing the RF
leakage to earth ground of an Isolated Output type CF electrosurgical generator from a single active or
dispersive lead. The test complies with IEC 601.2.2, sec. 19.101b, fig, 104 and sec. 19.102, adopted by
ANSI/AAMI HF18-2001. The purpose of this test is to verify that open circuit RF leakage of the Device
Under Test (DUT) meets or exceeds the IEC specification. The SECULIFE ES
XTRA internally connects
the load to earth ground. An external ground is also provided at the front panel.
NOTE: DO NOT TEST AN EARTH REFERENCED TYPE BF ELECTROSURGICAL GENERATOR WITH
THIS TEST, THE RESULTING MEASUREMENT WILL BE ERRONEOUS.
Connections
1) Active Jack on SECULIFE ESXTRA to DUT Active Output or Bipolar 1.
WARNING - ONE LEAD AT A TIME
