There are international standards that govern the electrical design of these areas. Among the most important ones are the NFPA 99, which establishes criteria for different levels of health services or systems based on protection for patients, staff or visitors at health centers to minimize the risks of fire, explosion, and electricity.
The insulating board is basically a distribution board that has elements such as an internal isolation transformer, which must be regulated for this purpose, and a monitor that verifies the insulation and possible ground faults that can have its circuits. The board can be single-phase, three-phase, dual or single. The idea is that no circulating earth fault currents can be induced and in the event that happens, the board can issue an alarm indicating to the doctors and assistance personnel that they must take the precaution, verify the fault as soon as possible or depending on the situation take immediate action.
