Prevention Of Electrostatic Discharge Damage - Juniper ACX7100-32C Hardware Manual

• Canada—Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.
• Suitable for installation in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of the
National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.
Peut être installé dans des salles de matériel de traitement de l'information conformément à
l'article 645 du National Electrical Code et à la NFPA 75.
• Locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working so that if an electrical
accident occurs, you can quickly turn off the power.
• Make sure that you clean grounding surface and give them a bright finish before making grounding
connections.
• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist anywhere in your workspace.
• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check the circuit before starting to
work.
• Carefully look for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power
extension cords, and missing safety grounds.
• Operate the device within marked electrical ratings and product usage instructions.
• To ensure that the device and peripheral equipment function safely and correctly, use the cables and
connectors specified for the attached peripheral equipment, and make certain they are in good
condition.
You can remove and replace many device components without powering off or disconnecting power to
the device, as detailed elsewhere in the hardware documentation for this device. Never install
equipment that appears to be damaged.

Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Device components that are shipped in antistatic bags are sensitive to damage from static electricity.
Some components can be impaired by voltages as low as 30 V. You can easily generate potentially
damaging static voltages whenever you handle plastic or foam packing material or if you move
components across plastic or carpets. Observe the following guidelines to minimize the potential for
electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can cause intermittent or complete component failures:
• Always use an ESD wrist strap when you are handling components that are subject to ESD damage,
and make sure that it is in direct contact with your skin.
