4.6 Workstation Precautions

Use the following grounding precautions at workstations:

■

Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding
material (refer to

Table 4-2, “Static-Shielding Materials”

).

■

Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work
surface and use properly grounded tools and equipment.

■

Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters,
screwdrivers, and vacuums.

■

When using fixtures that must directly contact dissipative
surfaces, only use fixtures made of static-safe materials.

■

Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as
ordinary plastic assembly aids and Styrofoam.

■

Handle electrostatic-sensitive components, parts, and
assemblies by the case or PCM laminate. Handle these
items only at static-free workstations.

■

Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.

■

Turn off power and input signals before inserting or
removing connectors or test equipment.
