Grounding methods
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of
the following methods when handling or installing
electrostatic-sensitive parts:
■ Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded
Thin Client chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a
minimum of 1 megohm +/- 10 percent resistance in the ground
cords. To provide proper grounding, wear the strap snug against
the skin.
■ Use heelstraps, toestraps, or bootstraps at standing workstations.
Wear the straps on both feet when standing on conductive floors
or dissipating floor mats.
■ Use conductive field service tools.
■ Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating
work mat.
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper
grounding, contact an HP authorized dealer, reseller, or service
provider.
