Use one or more of the following grounding methods when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
A wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the skin.
Heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats. Use conductive field service tools.
A portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.
