Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It
occurs when electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in
complete or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD prevention procedures when
removing and replacing cards. Ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected
to earth ground. Wear an ESD wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact.
Connect the clip to an unpainted chassis frame surface to safely channel unwanted
ESD voltages to ground. To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist
strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself
by touching the metal part of the chassis.
Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic
strap, which should be within the range of 1 and 10 Mohms.
