IEC 61010-2-034:2023 EXV contains both the international standard and its extended version (EXV). This extended version of the official IEC Standard is available in English only and provides the user with the comprehensive content of the Standard. IEC 61010-2-034:2023 EXV includes the content of the references made to IEC 61010-1:2010 and IEC 61010-1:2010/AMD1:2016.

IEC 61010-2-034:2023 specifies safety requirements to equipment for measuring insulation resistance and to equipment for testing electric strength which have an output voltage exceeding 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. This document also applies to combined measuring equipment which has an insulation resistance measurement function or an electric strength test measurement function. This document has the status of a horizontal publication in accordance with IEC Guide 108. It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) in 1.2.1, requirements for protection against hazards which could occur from reading a voltage have been added to the scope;
b) Clause 2, all normative references have been dated; new normative references have been added;
c) in 4.3.2.5, requirements for power supply have been modified;
