Grounding Methods
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the following
measures when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
■ Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation
or the computer chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum
of 1 megohm +/- 10 percent resistance in the ground cords.
■ Use heel straps, toe straps, or bootstraps at standing workstations. Wear
the straps on both feet when standing on conductive floors or dissipating
floor mats.
■ Use conductive field service tools.
■ Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work
mat.
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding,
request that a Compaq authorized service provider install the part.
NOTE: For additional information on static electricity, or assistance with the installation of
this product, contact your Compaq authorized service provider.
