Anti-Static Precautions - Mitsubishi Electric Apricot LS Pro Using Setup And Installing Add-Ons

Anti-static precautions

All electronic components and equipment are sensitive to
static electricity. Even small electrostatic discharges can
render components useless or severely shorten their
working life, therefore you should always take preventive
measures.
No work should be carried out on any item unless it is in a
Special Handling Area (SHA) as defined in BS CECC
00015:Part 1. In general this involves:
* a common earth point
* an earthed bench or bench mat
* an earthed wrist strap
