• Class I footwear can absorb damp if used for longer
periods and can become conductive in damp or wet
conditions.
• If the footwear is worn in conditions where the sole
material becomes contaminated, the wearer must
always check the electrical properties of the footwear
before entering a hazard area.
• Where anti-static footwear is in use, the resistance of
the flooring should be such that it does not invalidate
the protection provided by the footwear.
• No insulating objects, apart from normal socks, may be
used between the footwear's insole and the wearer's
foot. If any inlays are used between the insole and the
foot, the electrical properties of the combination of
footwear and inlay must be checked.
• The footwear comes with a detachable insole. Note that
testing is carried out with the insole in place. Only wear
footwear with the insole in. The insole may only be
replaced with an insole of the same type.
