The terminal block is shipped in an antistatic package to prevent
electrostatic damage (ESD) that can damage several components in the
terminal block. To avoid such damage when you handle the terminal block,
take the following precautions:
• Ground yourself using a grounding strap or by holding a grounded
object.
• Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of the chassis before you
remove the terminal block from the package.
Remove the terminal block from the package and inspect the terminal block
for loose components or any sign of damage. Notify NI if the terminal
block appears damaged in any way. Do not install a damaged terminal
block on a switch terminal block.
Store the terminal block in the antistatic package when not in use.
