• Avoid physical contact with electronic components. If you need to perform absolutely
essential work on these components, then you must wear one of the following protective
gear:
– Grounded ESD wrist strap
– ESD shoes or ESD shoe grounding strips if there is also an ESD oor.
• Do not place electronic components close to data terminals, monitors or televisions.
Maintain a minimum clearance to the screen (> 10 cm).
• Electronic components should not be brought into contact with electrically insulating
materials such as plastic foil, plastic parts, insulating table supports or clothing made of
synthetic bers.
• Place components in contact with ESD-suited materials e.g. ESD tables, ESD surfaces, ESD
packaging.
• Measure on the components only if one of the following conditions is met:
– The measuring device is grounded with a protective conductor.
– The measuring head of a oating measuring device has been discharged directly before
the measurement.
The necessary ESD protective measures for the entire working range for electrostatically
sensitive devices are illustrated once again in the following drawings. Precise instructions for
ESD protective measures are specied in the standard IEC 61340-5-1.
