SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
FOR MEASUREMENT, CONTROL, AND LABORATORY USE –

Part 2-034: Particular requirements for measurement equipment
for insulation resistance and test equipment for electric strength

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61010-2-034 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 66:
Safety of measuring, control and laboratory equipment.
It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

established on the basis of the third edition (2010) of IEC 61010-1, including its amendment 1
(2016).
This Part 2-034 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61010-1 so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for measurement
equipment for insulation resistance and test equipment for electric strength.
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2, that subclause applies
as far as is reasonable. Where this part states “addition”, “modification”, “replacement”, or
“deletion” the relevant requirement, test specification or note in Part 1 should be adapted
accordingly.
In this standard:
a) the following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type;
– NOTES: in small roman type;
– conformity and test: in italic type;
– terms used throughout this standard which have been defined in Clause 3: SMALL
ROMAN CAPITALS;
b) subclauses, figures, tables and notes which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered
starting from 101. Additional annexes are lettered starting from AA and additional list
items are lettered from aa).
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 61010 series, under the general title Safety requirements for
electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use, can be found on the IEC
website.

Add the following new subclause:
5.1.5.101 Measuring circuit TERMINALS
5.1.5.101.1 General
Some measuring circuit TERMINALS for the equipment within the scope of this standard also
serve as output TERMINALS.
Except as permitted in 5.1.5.101.5:
a) the value of the RATED voltage to earth of measuring circuit TERMINALS shall be marked,
and
b) the value of the RATED voltage or the RATED current, as applicable, of each pair or set of
measuring circuit TERMINALS that are intended to be used together shall be marked, and
c) the pertinent MEASUREMENT CATEGORY for each individual pair or set of measuring circuit
TERMINALS or symbol 14 of Table 1 shall be marked as specified in 5.1.5.101.2 and
5.1.5.101.3, if applicable.
Measuring circuit TERMINALS are usually supplied in pairs or sets. Each pair or set of
TERMINALS may have a RATED voltage or a RATED current, or both, within that set, and each
individual TERMINAL may have a RATED voltage to earth. For some equipment, the RATED
voltage (between TERMINALS) may be different from the RATED voltage to earth. Markings shall
be clear to avoid misunderstanding.
Symbol 14 of Table 1 shall be marked if current measuring TERMINALS are not intended for
connection to current transformers without internal protection (see 101.2).
Markings shall be placed adjacent to the TERMINALS. However, if there is insufficient space (as
in multi-input equipment), the marking may be on the RATING plate or scale plate, or the
TERMINAL may be marked with symbol 14 of Table 1.
For any set of measuring circuit TERMINALS, symbol 14 of Table 1 does not need to be marked
more than once, if it is close to the TERMINALS.
Conformity is checked by inspection and, if applicable, as specified in 5.1.5.101.2, 5.1.5.101.3
and 5.1.5.101.4, taking the exceptions in 5.1.5.101.5 into account.
5.1.5.101.2 Measuring circuit TERMINALS RATED for MEASUREMENT CATEGORIES II, III or IV
The relevant MEASUREMENT CATEGORY shall be marked for measuring circuit TERMINALS RATED
for measurements within MEASUREMENT CATEGORIES II, III or IV. The MEASUREMENT CATEGORY
markings shall be “CAT II”, “CAT III” or “CAT IV” as applicable.
Marking more than one type of MEASUREMENT CATEGORY and its RATED voltage to earth is
permissible.
Conformity is checked by inspection.
5.1.5.101.3 Measuring circuit TERMINALS RATED for connection to voltages above the
levels of 6.3.1
Symbol 14 of Table 1 shall be marked for measuring circuit TERMINALS RATED for connection to
voltages above the levels of 6.3.1, but that are not RATED for measurements within
MEASUREMENT CATEGORIES II, III or IV (see also 5.4.1 bb)).
Conformity is checked by inspection.

Output TERMINALS of measurement equipment for insulation resistance and test equipment for
electric strength which can be HAZARDOUS LIVE shall be marked with symbol 12 of Table 1 in
close proximity to those TERMINALS.
Conformity is checked by inspection.
5.1.5.101.5 Permanently connected, dedicated or low voltage measuring circuit
TERMINALS
Measuring circuit TERMINALS do not need to be marked if:
a) they are intended to be permanently connected and not ACCESSIBLE (see 5.4.3 aa) and
bb)), or
b) they are dedicated only for connection to specific TERMINALS of other equipment, or
c) it is obvious from other indications that the RATED voltage is below the levels of 6.3.1.
NOTE Examples of acceptable indications that the inputs are intended to be below the levels of 6.3.1 include:
– the full scale deflection marking of a single-range indicating voltmeter or ammeter or maximum marking of
a multi-range multimeter;
– the maximum range marking of a voltage selector switch;
– a marked voltage or power RATING expressed in dB, mW or W, where the equivalent value, as explained in
the documentation, is below 30 V a.c.
Conformity is checked by inspection.
5.4.1 General
