Zusammenfassung:An apparatus for electrical safety is disclosed. A system and an alternate apparatus also perform the functions of the apparatus. The apparatus includes a test point accessible from an exterior of an enclosure while the enclosure is in a closed state. The enclosure houses one or more electrical components and the closed state prevents a user from touching the one or more electrical components. The apparatus includes a test conductor connected to a point on a conductor connected to an electrical component of the one or more electrical components where the test conductor is within the enclosure. The apparatus includes an impedance connecting the test point to the test conductor. The impedance is within the enclosure. The test point meets an Ingress Protection code rating of 20.
