I have a medical application that requires "double insulation" from the
Mains to an "applied part" according to IEC60601.  IEC60601 states that for
a reference voltage of 250v and double insulation, the test voltage is 4000v
for 1 min.  I am assuming that the voltages are RMS values.

How does one go about meeting the 4000v test when the highest rated ac-dc
converter I can find is 3500v RMS  continuous.

Any help is appreciated.
 Thanks.
