The document provides guidelines for electrical installations in medical locations. It discusses requirements for safety services that provide backup power for essential equipment during an outage. This includes lighting in certain areas, lifts for firefighters, ventilation for smoke extraction, medical equipment for surgery or vital functions, medical gas supplies, and fire detection and suppression systems. It also describes verification procedures that must be performed, including initial testing before use and periodic testing, such as annual functional testing of backup power systems and three-year measurements of supplementary bonding and leakage currents.

60364-7-710  IEC:2002 – 27 –

– escape routes;
– lighting of exit signs;
– locations for switchgear and controlgear for emergency generation sets and for main
distribution boards of the normal power supply and for power supply for safety services;
– rooms in which essential services are intended. In each room at least one luminaire shall
be supplied from the power source for safety services;
– rooms of group 1 medical locations. In each room at least one luminaire shall be supplied
from the power supply source for safety services;
– rooms of group 2 medical locations. A minimum of 50 % of the lighting shall be supplied
from the power source for safety services.

NOTE The values for minimum illuminance can be given by national and/or local regulations

710.556.8 Other services

Services other than lighting which require a safety service supply with a changeover period not
exceeding 15 s may include, for example, the following:

– selected lifts for firemen;


– ventilating systems for smoke extraction;
– paging systems;
– medical electrical equipment used in group 2 medical locations which serves for surgical or
other measures of vital importance. Such equipment will be defined by responsible staff;
– electrical equipment of medical gas supply including compressed air, vacuum supply and
narcosis (anaesthetics) exhaustion as well as their monitoring devices;
– fire detection, fire alarms and fire extinguishing systems.

710.6 Verification

The dates and results of each verification shall be recorded.

710.61 Initial verification

The tests specified below under items a) to e) in addition to the requirements of IEC 60364-6-61,
shall be carried out, both prior to commissioning and after alterations or repairs and before
re-commissioning.

a) Functional test of insulation monitoring devices of medical IT systems and acoustical/visual


alarm systems.
b) Measurements to verify that the supplementary equipotential bonding is in accordance with
710.413.1.6.1 and 710.413.1.6.2.
c) Verification of the integrity of the facilities required with 710.413.1.6.3 for equipotential
bonding.
d) Verification of the integrity of the requirements of 710.556 for safety services.
e) Measurements of leakage current of the output circuit and of the enclosure of medical IT
transformers in no-load condition.

710.62 Periodic verification

Periodic verification of items a) to e) of 710.61 shall be carried out in accordance with


local/national regulations. If no local/national regulations exist, the following intervals are
recommended:
60364-7-710  IEC:2002 – 29 –

a) functional testing of changeover devices: 12 months;


b) functional testing of insulation monitoring devices: 12 months;
c) checking, by visual inspection, settings of protective devices: 12 months;
d) measurement verifying the supplementary equipotential bonding: 36 months ;
e) verifying integrity of facilities required for equipotential bonding: 36 months;
f) monthly functional testing of:
– safety services with batteries: 15 min;
– safety services with combustion engines: until rated running temperature is achieved;
12 months for “endurance run”;
– safety services with batteries: capacity test;
– safety services with combustion engines: 60 min;
In all cases at least 50 % to 100 % of the rated power shall be taken over.
g) measurement of leakage currents of IT transformers: 36 months;
h) checking of the tripping of RCDs at I ∆N : not less than 12 months.
