Electrical Systems – Wet Procedure Locations
Operating rooms are considered wet procedure locations, unless otherwise
determined by a risk assessment conducted by the facility governing body.
Operating rooms defined as wet locations are protected by either isolated
power or ground-fault circuit interrupters. A written record of the risk
assessment is maintained and available for inspection.

Electrical Systems – Maintenance and Testing
Hospital-grade receptacles at patient bed locations and where deep
sedation or general anesthesia is administered, are tested after initial
installation, replacement or servicing. Additional testing is performed at
intervals defined by documented performance data. Receptacles not listed
as hospital-grade at these locations are tested at intervals not exceeding 12
months. Line isolation monitors (LIM), if installed, are tested at intervals of
≤ 1 month by actuating the LIM test switch per 6.3.2.6.3.6, which activates
both visual and audible alarm. For LIM circuits with automated self-testing,
this manual test is performed at intervals ≤ 12 months. LIM circuits are
tested per 6.3.3.3.2 after any repair or renovation to the electric distribution
system. Records are maintained of required tests and associated repairs or
modifications, containing date, room or area tested, and results.

☐ General care rooms (Category 2) in which electrical system failure is
likely to cause minor injury to patients (Category 2) are served by a Type 1
or Type 2 EES.
☐ Basic care rooms (Category 3) in which electrical system failure is not
