Overview
1G20 Electrical Safety Test Limits

The Electrical Safety Test Limits document provides the test limits for the electrical safety
test, which must be performed on the SONOLINE G20 ultrasound imaging systems during
planned maintenance, after servicing the system if mechanical or electrical safety may
have been affected, or if a safety check is specified in a service procedure.
For detailed information about performing the electrical safety test in the field, refer to the
(US88-100.888.01 / ACUSON/SONOLINE Electrical Safety Test Procedure).

NOTE In the data tables, Table 1 through Table 6, the switch numbers S1,
S2, and S3 refer to the analyzer switches designated in the draw-
ings of the related procedures contained in (US88-100.888.01 /
ACUSON/SONOLINE Electrical Safety Test Procedure).

CAUTION Improper use of the safety analyzer can affect the validity of the
test or cause the safety analyzer fuse to open.
¹ Review the operating instructions carefully before using
the electrical safety analyzer.

CAUTION When performing safety tests with the electrical safety analyzer,
always verify that the UUT has had sufficient time to re-initialize,
after a change of the test mode, before performing the next test.
¹ Failure to do so may result in inaccurate measurements.

CAUTION When performing safety tests, ensure the power up and power
down sequences are complete and the system is fully de-ener-
gized prior to changing any tester switch settings.
¹ Failure to do so may cause software corruption.

Inspect the system for internal and external electrical faults. Use the following criteria to
pass or fail the visual inspection:
• Pass—if no internal or external electrical faults are found.

Part 7: Equivalent Leakage Current Test 0

For regions using the IEC 60601-1 standard, equivalent leakage current measurements
involve comparing the measured value to the value of an initial measurement taken previ-
ously. The value of the current measurement must not exceed the value of the initial mea-
surement by 1.5 times, or by a total of 10 µA above the initial value (whichever limit is
higher).

NOTE Perform this test only if the other leakage current tests included in
(US88-100.888.01 / ACUSON/SONOLINE Electrical Safety Test Pro-
cedure) cannot be performed. Consult ARTD-002.731.17.01.02
“Safety Regulations for Installation and Maintenance” for informa-
tion on this test.
