Standard: Most typical 5 leads are: right arm, left arm, right leg, left leg, v1 lead. For convenience, they are usually put on the torso. Put the arm leads by the corresponding clavicle. Put the leg leads at the inferior edge of ribs on each side. Put the v1 lead just to the right of the sternal border at the 4th intercostal space.
