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.
