| Title | Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-26: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of electroencephalographs |
| Project Number | 22410 |
| Abstract/Scope | IEC 60601-2-26:2012 standard applies to basic safety and essential performance of electroencephalographs used in a clinical environment (e.g., hospital, physician's office, etc.). This standard does not cover requirements for other equipment used in electroencephalography. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60601-2-26 published in 2003. The aim of this third edition is to bring this particular standard up to date with reference to the third edition of the general standard IEC 60601-1:2005 Edition 3, through reformatting and technical changes. |

(3) Date of announcement (doa) latest date by which the existence of an EN (and HD for CENELEC), a TS or a CWA has to be announced at national level
(4) Date of publication (dop) latest date by which an EN has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement
(5) Date of withdrawal (dow) latest date by which national standards conflicting with an EN (and HD for CENELEC) have to be withdrawn
