Reducing electrostatic damage while taking measuremens
Static electricity that builds up on your body can damage static-sensitive
components. If you are working with static-sensitive components, ground
yourself when using probes. Wearing a grounding strap safely sends static
charges on your body to earth ground.
Connect the grounding strap to the oscilloscope ground, or to the same ground
circuit that the oscilloscope is connected to.
