Alarm Bells: Safety Risks of Acorn 120 130 Stairlifts With Leemac Power Supply Units
VIDEO CONTENT: The maximum allowable leakage current on touchable surfaces for Class 2 medical devices, which includes stairlifts, is typically set at 1000 microamperes (1 milliampere) according to various electrical safety codes in Canada and the USA. This standard is outlined in the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), which emphasize the importance of minimizing electrical risks, especially for devices used by vulnerable populations such as the elderly and disabled.
In the case of the Leemac Class 2 transformers used with Acorn stairlifts, the reported AC Ripple of 4 to 38 milliamperes significantly exceeds these safety thresholds. Such excess could indicate a breach of safety codes, potentially exposing the manufacturers to liability issues.
Insurance companies may indeed consider this breach when assessing claims related to fire, accidents, or fatalities involving these stairlift transformers. If it can be demonstrated that the equipment does not meet safety standards, insurers might deny benefits based on negligence or non-compliance with electrical safety regulations.

QUESTION:
Video repair diaries in Rumble, Facebbok, YouTube, TikToc and other video sharing sites show Acorn 120 and 130 straight stairlifts installed with 120V AC to 15V AC Leemac Class 2 transformers, with tests showing actual AC output of ~18V AC; and, also outputting AC Ripple 4 to 38 milliamperes on touchable surfaces. Accident records show thousands of stairlift injuries and more than 20 deaths due to stairlift use. In Canada and the USA, what are the electric Code and safety Code maximum milliampere limits for Class 2 medical devices' touchable surfaces, for elderly and disabled patients? The Leemac company is part of the Acorn companies. Which electrical or safety Codes do these said Leemac transformers breach, if any? Will an insurance company potentially deny fire, accident, or death benefits involving said Leemac-Acorn stairlift transformers?
AI's ANSWER:
The maximum allowable leakage current on touchable surfaces for Class 2 medical devices is generally limited to around 1 mA under normal operating conditions according to IEC standards; if Leemac transformers exceed this limit or violate NEC/CEC guidelines regarding safe voltages and currents on accessible surfaces, they could be considered non-compliant. Insurance companies may deny claims if negligence related to these violations is established in accident investigations.
