Mr Poore While you are correct in the intent and meaning of the standard; my point was, that if the customer specs product compliance with standard xyz, than the requirements of xyz becomes your design and test target. I have lost count of the number of times that a customer has spec'd 601-1 or whatever, when either x950 or x1010-1 is applicable for the intended end use. What the customer wants, the customer gets (if he pays)...
Brian There are no requirements for using an isolation transformer as long as you can meet the requirements for "touch" current (leakage current) without one. These requirements are similiar to 950, and not as stringent as the medical requirement.

Of course, the customer spec can require compliance to the Med Dev Dir.

Does it fall under the IEC 61010 standard? If so, are there any requirements for use of isolation transformers in that standard?
