●Isolated Power Systems Overview
■Introduction
▲An isolated power system offers an invaluable advantage in medical settings. It serves as a predictive system, rather than a reactive one, to supply early detection of potential hazardous current. Early detection gives hospital personnel:
◆a visual indication of potential leakage current via a line isolation monitor (LIM)
◆alarming via audible and visual indications when the power system exceeds a pre-set threshold level
▲With this information, hospital workers can then take appropriate measures to help ensure critical systems remain active.
▲An isolated, ungrounded, electrical distribution system from Schneider Electric contains the following components:
◆Isolation Transformer—specifically designed with low leakage current per UL 1047. Includes electrostatic shielding for noise attenuation in the ungrounded system.
◆PowerPact Circuit Breaker—used for main equipment disconnect; can be coordinated with QOB branch circuit breakers
◆NQ Interior—provides space for up to 16 branch circuit breakers
◆Iso-Gard™ Line Isolation Monitor (LIM)—shipped with interior (not shown below)
◆Hinged Back Box/Trim System—introduced in 2019, this system houses all other components
