Brazilian Portuguese,this is an ANVISA resolution re. medical devices.
Os produtos para saúde devem ser projetados e fabricados de forma que, quando
forem corretamente instalados e usados em condições normais ou em condição de
primeiro defeito, se eliminem os riscos de choques elétricos acidentais.
I can't find anything for "condição de primeiro defeito" - I initially assumed in another context that it related to some kind of malfunction, but have no idea what it actually means based on this wider context. All suggestions gratefully received.

first defect condition


Explanation:
I found the equivalent in French (see link). Don't think it's a very common term but I think this translation would work. Example sentence in second link

"The first defect condition occurs if the outer semi-conductive screen is removed too far that results in a gap between the end of outer semi-conductive screen"

Notes to answerer
Asker: Wow that's literal! I didn't think to try it in French, thanks for that.

Asker: I think actually it may be "first single fault condition" as the definition of this seems to correspond to what I am translating. A first single fault condition means that the medical device is still free of unacceptable risk.
