ESD Ground Procedures and Equipment
The best protection against ESD is to keep the ground braids as short as
possible and connect them to a central point on the booth base as shown in
the Star diagram. Under normal conditions making Star connections is not
a problem, but in some systems, such as roll-on/roll-off booths, the ground
braids required for a Star connection are too long to be effective against
ESD. In this case, a Daisy Chain ground configuration is acceptable.

Figure 3-9 ESD Grounding Procedures and Equipment
Always use the special flat-braided copper ESD ground cables furnished
with all Nordson spray gun controllers to ground them. The ESD ground
cables should always be attached to the booth base, not to a panel,
enclosure, or other component bolted to the base. Keep the cables as short
as possible. If using a grounding block kit, make sure the block is installed
directly to the base with the included self-drilling screws.
An ESD grounding block kit is available for connecting the ground braids to
the booth base. The kit contains two 6-position grounding blocks, fasteners,
terminals, and 15 meters (50 feet) of braided ground cable. If additional kits
are required, order:
