This standard establishes minimum safety and performance requirements for electrosurgical
systems. An electrosurgical system consists of a high frequency electrical current generator,
cables, electrodes, and safety devices for delivering this high frequency electrical energy to the
patient to accomplish electrosurgery. The system includes the circuitry and devices needed to
control the duration, mode of operation, and intensity of the application. Included within the scope
of this standard are electrosurgical devices and the electrosurgical portion of multifunction
devices. Examples of devices within the scope of this standard are electrosurgical high frequency
generators and directly related accessories, including active electrodes and cables, dispersive
electrodes and cables, and footswitches or other operator-controlled mechanisms for activating
the generator output.
