B.1.1.2 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the PPC-Cxxx-
ADL may result in permanent damage to the PPC-Cxxx-ADL and
severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the PPC-Cxxx-ADL. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore
critical that whenever the PPC-Cxxx-ADL is opened and any of the electrical components
are handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
◼ Wear an anti-static wristband : Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging any electrical component.
◼ Self-grounding : Before handling any electrical component, touch any
grounded conducting material. During the time the electrical component is
handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to
the ground.
◼ Use an anti-static pad : When configuring or working with an electrical
component, place it on an anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of
ESD damage.
◼ Only handle the edges of the electrical component : When handling the
electrical component, hold the electrical component by its edges.
