Measurements may be taken on electrostatically sensitive devices only if
the measuring device is grounded (for example via protective conductor)
or
the tip of the isolated measuring device has previously been discharged
(for example, by briefly touching grounded metal parts).
Generally use conductive materials for packing modules without casing and
components. You may also use metal-clad plastic boxes or metal containers.
Always store ESD modules in conductive packing material.
When packing modules incorporating batteries, cover the battery connections
with insulating tape or insulating material to avoid short-circuiting of the
battery. Remove the battery if possible.
