Electrostatic discharge safety precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) affects the performance and decreases the useful
life of system components. ESD can seriously damage component parts, such as
circuit cards.
Implement the following precautions, which are recommended by computer and
telephone equipment manufacturers:
n
Remove items that generate static charge from the installation site.
n
Use antistatic spray if the site is carpeted.
n
Ground yourself before handling any equipment. (For example, wear an
antistatic wrist strap attached to any unpainted metal surface that is
connected to an electrical ground.)
