[ ] Protection against electrical HAZARDS from ME EQUIPMENTNOTE: Unless there are electrical connections to the PATIENT (e.g. monitoring ACCESSORIES) or heated breathing tubes or electrically powered ACCESSORIES (e.g. expiratory valves located proximal to the PATIENT), the plastic breathing tubes provide adequate floating electrical isolation for PATIENT LEAKAGE CURRENT.

[ ] NOTE: Commercially available ITC (information technology communications) power supplies can be used, but electrical safety criteria (e.g. ENCLOSURE TOUCH CURRENTS and dielectric withstand) are likely to exceed 60601-1 limits. This can be mitigated in several ways such
[ ] as:• Use of a low leakage SEPARATION DEVICE (isolation transformer) (see 16.5 of the GS)•
[ ] A second PERMANENTLY INSTALLED PROTECTIVE EARTH CONNECTION (see 16.6 of the
[ ] GS)• Instructing the OPERATOR to not touch the EUV and the PATIENT at the same time
