Low Voltage (LV) Electrical Safety Standards
Electrical products and systems are governed by one of the
most comprehensive standards MS, IEC, NEC, IEEE, UL,
etc. because electrical hazards are usually not detectable byhuman being and can be fatal.
LV electrical safety standards provide minimum requirements
and/or specifications and associated test methods for electrical
products and/or systems to achieve an acceptable level of lifecycle safety and performance to user.
o WhatAll standards
o How and whyIEEE, NFPA
What is electrical safety ?
Safe to human being, pets and livestock,
and environment only
from electrical or secondary hazards. 7

LV Electrical Standards
The major considerations for an LV electrical
standards.
o Ensure safety of usersreduce hazards to acceptable level
o Ensure safety of producer reduce hazards to acceptable
level
o
Minimize the life cycle cost of operating the product orservices,
o Minimize the cost of manufacturing and delivery the
product or delivering the services.
All these above major considerations are intrinsic inall LV electrical standards. Thus, discussing electrical
safety standards basically is discussing electrical
standards.

Type Tests
Type test or design testo Conformity test on one or more items or devices or system (equipment,
machine, components, sub assemblies, etc) to a certain design and
representative of the production, to show that the design meets certainspecifications or comply with the requirements of the standard concernedprior to production.
o Carry out by accredited test laboratory.
Type test is carried out for new product/system (If theproduct/system standard specifies type tests) prior to production, or
o For existing type tested product/system, when there is significantdesign changes to type test conditions when implementing engineeringchange.
o A test is destructive.
o A test is too expensive, time consuming, not viable, etc to carry out asroutine or production test.
Qualification margin.o Difference between a type test condition and its corresponding most severe
specified operating conditions The difference between productionconditions and the conditions used for type test..
o Qualification margin accounts for variations in production of equipmentand reasonable error in defining satisfactory performance.

Dielectric Strength Tests (Type & Routine Tests)
Also known as dielectric withstand test or hipot test used for
both type and routine tests.
o Type test Apply after tests such as fault condition, humidity, andvibration to determine whether any degradation has taken place.
Purpose.
o To determine the adequacy of electric insulation for the
normally occurring overvoltage transient.o To detect possible defects such as inadequate creepage and
clearance distances introduced during the manufacturing.
Test voltage Most safety standard uses 2U + 1000V U is
the operating rms voltage or according to test standard.Voltage ramping Not more than of the prescribed voltage
be applied, and then raised gradually over a period of 10
seconds to the full value or according to test standard and
maintained for 1 minute.26

27/31
Dielectric Strength Tests (Type & Routine Tests)
Test durationAccording to test standard for type test
o According to the test standard for type testIEC 60950 is 1 minute.
o For routine test, it is normally not practical to hipot test each item for 1minute. The manufacturer normally conduct the test to a much shorter
time, such as a few seconds, but with higher voltages.
A typical rule of thumb is 110% to 120% of 2U+1000 for 12 s.
Current setting Most hipot testers allow the user to set the
current limit.
o If the actual leakage current of the item is known, then the hipot test
current can be predicted.
o The best way to identify the trip level is to test some product samples
and establish an average hipot current.DC test voltage
o The insulation under test is most stressed when the ac voltage is at its
peak. To use dc voltage, make sure the dc test voltage is _/2 x ac
voltage.

28/31
Dielectric Strength Tests (Type & Routine Tests)
One of the advantage of an ac hipot test is that it can check
both voltage polarities, whereas a dc hipot test charges the
insulation in only one polarity.A minor disadvantage of ac hipot test is that if the item under
test has large values of Y capacitors, the hipot tester can
indicate a failure.
o
Most safety standards allow the user to disconnect the Y capacitorsprior to testing or alternatively, to use a dc hipot tester.
The test setup and procedures are identical for both ac and dc
hipot tests

Insulation Resistance Tests (Routine Test)
8/9/2019 (4) Overview of Low Voltage Electrical Safety Standards for Healthcare Facilities (Ied)
30/31
Insulation Resistance Tests (Routine Test)
Also known as a Meggar test.
Measure the total resistance between two points separated by
insulation.Test voltagetypically 500V1000Vdc
o The current flow is very low for a good insulation. Thus this test is
useful for checking the quality of the insulation not only when an item
is first manufactured, but also over time as the item is used.
Test procedure
o The insulation under test is connected to the measuring instrument and
the test voltage is ramped up from zero to the final value
o Once the voltage reaches the final value, it is hold for typically 5
seconds before the resistance value is measured.

Earth Bond Test (Routine Test)
8/9/2019 (4) Overview of Low Voltage Electrical Safety Standards for Healthcare Facilities (Ied)
31/31
Earth Bond Test (Routine Test)
Also known as earth continuity test.
Must be conducted on all Class I equipment or system.
Purpose To ensure that all accessible conductive parts of theproduct that could become line in the event of a singleinsulation fault are connected securely to the final earth pointof the supply input.
Test procedure
o The earth bond circuit is subjected to a high ac or dc current (I) with alow test voltage (V) for a period of time (T)
o Measure the voltage drop (V) of the earth bond circuit under test
o The earth bond resistance (R) is calculated usingOhmsLaw
o IEC 60950
V < 12V
I = 1.5 x rated current or 25A, whichever is higher
T = 1 minute
R < 0.1 ohm
