Charging
Anyone who is not conductively connected to the electrical potential of their
surroundings can be electrostatically charged.
The maximum electrostatic voltage values which an operator can be charged with
when contacting the materials stated in the illustration are shown in Fig. A-1.
These values correspond to the specifications of IEC 801-2.
