Static Electricity and ESD Protection
- 35 volts is the minimum amount of static electricity required to damage a computer component.
- Antistatic bags are used to store components to prevent static electricity from damaging them during storage and transportation.
- Grounded floor mats are recommended in work areas for Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection to prevent the buildup of static electricity on the worker's body, which could damage sensitive components.
Test your knowledge on Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) and its impact on electronic components. Learn about the importance of ESD protection measures such as antistatic bags, grounded mats, and wrist straps.
