Figure 4-2. DC Leakage Testing

Potentially harmful dc levels can be detected using the various test
configurations described below:

Static Tests (Pacemaker Power OFF):

These tests continuously measure dc leakage as follows:

Atrial Channel: dc leakage across the atrial channel 500

Ω

test load.

Ventricular Channel: dc leakage across the ventricular channel 500

Ω

test load.

AV Channel: dc leakage across an auxiliary 500

Ω

test load

connected to the +atrial and +ventricular outputs.
