Electrostatic
Safety
Information
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic

done at a static-safe work station. A static-safe work station requires an
ESD consultant to evaluate the work environment and propose the
equipment and apparel needed for just such a work station to be
successful.
