  • Abstract:
  • Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) laboratories handle the most dangerous pathogens known to science, requiring the highest levels of safety and reliability in all systems, particularly electrical power distribution. In this paper, we present a comprehensive design for isolated electrical panels tailored to BSL-4 laboratories. The focus is on minimizing shock hazards, ensuring continuous power delivery, and maintaining system integrity under fault conditions. Key components such as isolation transformers, line-isolation monitors (LIMs), and advanced fault detection equipment are discussed, highlighting their roles in a safe and reliable power network. We benchmark our design against international codes (NFPA 70 [2], IEC 60364 [3]) and biosafety guidelines. By combining system analysis and component specifications, we propose a robust isolated power solution for high-containment labs. The results highlight critical design considerations and best practices for safety, fault tolerance, and compliance in BSL-4 facilities.
