How can installing a Square D Isolated Power Panel help improve patient safety?
When someone is undergoing an invasive procedure, the patient is extremely susceptible to electric shock. In that state, <1 milliamp will kill a patient undergoing an invasive procedure. Most common ground fault protection is covered by GFCI, which will trip between 4 and 6 milliamps of leakage to ground, and could even pose a shock risk. An IPS will continue to operate safely under fault conditions while notifying the staff of a potential issue.
