Okay i work in a health care facility in southern california. My question to all of you is are we required by law to test our receptacles in patient care areas? And if so is it all the hospital or just patient rooms...I ve looked it up on the internet but all i found was old stuff....PLEASE HELP
Drgnz23, yes you are. You are also required to do equipotential and leakage testing. This can be found in Chapter 4 of the 2002 NFPA 99 or chapter 3 of the earlier cycles of NFPA 99.
