Performing an Enclosure Leakage Test
Note
The Enclosure Leakage test is only available for
the IEC60601 & ANSI/AMMI ES60601-1,
ANSI/AAMI ES1 1993, and None standard
selections.
The Enclosure Leakage Test measures the current
flowing between the DUT’s enclosure and protective
earth. Figure 20 shows the electrical connections
between the Analyzer and the DUT
To perform an Enclosure (Chassis) Leakage Test:
1. Connect a lead between the Analyzer’s 2-WIRE
V/
Ω
/A jack and the DUT’s enclosure.
2. Press the softkey labeled Enclosure from the
Leakage Current Test menu.
3. The Analyzer displays the measured current.
The Enclosure 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.
The following outlet conditions apply when performing this
test:
•
Normal Polarity
•
Normal Polarity, Open Earth
•
Normal Polarity, Open Neutral
•
Reversed Polarity
•
Reversed Polarity, Open Earth
•
Reversed Polarity, Open Neutral
IEC60601-1 specifies that the applied parts should be
connected for this measurement. Enable this
measurement by pressing  or  which grounds and
