Static is generated as personnel move (or as equipment is moved) across a floor’s surface.
Carpeted and waxed vinyl floors contribute to static build up.
Work Surfaces
Painted or vinyl-covered tables, chairs, conveyor belts, racks, carts, anodized surfaces,
Plexiglas covers, and shelving are all static generators.
Equipment
Any equipment commonly found in an ESD work area, such as solder guns, heat guns,
blowers, etc., should be grounded.
Materials
Plastic work holders, foam, plastic tote boxes, pens, packaging containers and other items
commonly found at workstations can generate static electricity.
Grounding Requirements for Personnel
The information in this section is provided to assist you in selecting a grounding method.
This information is taken from ANSI/ESD S20.20-2007 (Revision of ANSI/ESD
S20.20-1999).
Product Qualification
Product qualification is normally conducted during the initial selection of ESD control
products and materials. Any of the following methods can be used: product specification
review, independent laboratory evaluation, or internal laboratory evaluation.
Compliance Verification
* For situations where an ESD garment is used as part of the wrist strap grounding path, the
total system resistance, including the person, garment, and grounding cord, must be less
than 3.5 x 10
7
ohm.
