10.9 Packing for Return for
Repair
All electronics assemblies must be
!
!
properly packed in ESD protective
packing for transport, to prevent
physical and ESD damage.
The filler material used for packing
!
!
for return for repair must be
antistatic or static dissipative, as this
may come into contact with exposed
connectors, wiring, or PCB
assemblies. The use of non-
conductive filler material may cause
damage to the electronic assemblies
reducing their operational life, or
even destroying them.
