WARNING

This test is hazardous. It applies line voltage to the ECG and transducer cables. Avoid accidental

 

 

contact with the line voltage. Do not touch the chassis, or the ECG or transducer cables while

 

 

performing the test. Keep the ECG and transducer cables at least 20 cm from any grounded or

 

 

conductive surfaces.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE During the isolation test, select only normal polarity. Do not impose open ground or

 

 

 

open neutral conditions.
