Electrostatic Discharge
Reducing Potential for ESD Damage
The suggestions that follow may help reduce ESD damage that occurs
during instrument testing and servicing.
• Before connecting any coaxial cable to an analyzer connector for the
first time each day, momentarily ground the center and outer
connectors of the cable.
• Personnel should be grounded with a resistor-isolated wrist strap
before touching the center in of any connector and before removing
any assembly from the unit.
• Be sure all instruments are properly earth-grounded to prevent
buildup of static discharge.
