IEC 60601-1 - Medical Electrical Equipment Safety

Self-Assess
International
vEdition 3.2 (2020)
18 domains
38 controls

IEC 60601-1 is the international standard for the safety and essential performance of medical electrical equipment. It establishes general requirements for basic safety and essential performance applicable to all medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems. The standard covers electrical hazards, mechanical hazards, radiation hazards, EMC, and software requirements (through IEC 62304 reference).

Unverified

IEC 60601-1 - Medical Electrical Equipment Safety is a compliance framework from International with 18 domains and 38 controls that map to 229 other frameworks. The largest domains are Clause 11-14: Temperatures, Accuracy, Faults, and PEMS (4 controls), Clause 4-5: General Requirements and Testing (4 controls), Clause 1-3: Scope, References, and Terminology (3 controls). Every control below carries what it requires and what an assessor expects to see.
