Shield arrangement for ECG lead wires
First Claim
1. A grounding arrangement in a system for ECG monitoring in which some of the connector elements (14) of the lead set connector (13) are alternatively used either for recording of ECG signals or for grounding of lead wire shields, characterized in that the grounding is performed through a current limiting circuit (27).

Abstract
The present invention discloses a grounding arrangement in a system using same connector for 5- and 12-lead connection in ECG-measurement. If 5-lead configuration is used, the connector elements of the 12-lead connection are used for grounding of lead wire shields. In the system according to the invention grounding of the lead wire shields is performed through current limiting element.
