AAMI has published Technical Information Report (TIR) 62354:2015 “General testing procedures for medical electrical equipment”.\u00a0 This report is available from AAMI at\u00a0http:\/\/my.aami.org\/store\/SearchResults.aspx?searchterm=62354&searchoption=ALL<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0This document is identical to the IEC TR 62354:2014 published last September, and gives detailed guidance to manufacturers, test houses, and other interested parties on the steps involved in the safety testing of medical electrical equipment.\u00a0 It builds on the test requirements of\u00a0IEC 60601-1:1988 (including the collateral provisions of IEC 60601-1-1:2000) and IEC 60601-1:2005 and IEC 60601-1:2005 and IEC 60601-1:2005\/AMD1:2012\u00a0but goes much further into testing details.\u00a0 Examples of the content of the TIR include a description of the power supply needed for testing, the sequence of testing, the test equipment needed for each test, production-line tests, and much more.<\/span><\/p>\n

This Report is not normative — which means it is not mandatory — however it gives excellent guidance and should be read and used by any laboratory interested in accurate, repeatable testing of medical electrical equipment or manufacturer and <\/span>other interested parties in learning more about how the tests are conducted when their product goes to a test lab for IEC 60601-1 Certification Testing. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
