>13   Leakage current and electric strength at operating temperature

Protective Impedance and radio interference filters are to be disconnected before carrying out the tests.

I suppose they are merely checking for an obvious no-no, like using accessible chassis metalwork as a current carrying conductor.

The parts to be disconnected are not designed to withstand the electric strength voltage.

However, don't radio frequency interference filters often have capacitors which use a metal enclosure as a common connection point?

I don't see that as relevant. The parts are disconnected from the L and N conductors.
