Prevent ESD Damage
 | Caution - To protect electronic components from ESD, which can permanently damage electronics, place components on an antistatic surface, such as an antistatic discharge mat, or an antistatic bag. Wear an antistatic grounding strap connected to a metal surface on the chassis when you work on server components. |
- Prepare
an antistatic surface to set parts on during the removal, installation,
or replacement process.
Place ESD-sensitive components such as printed circuit boards on an antistatic mat.
- Attach an antistatic wrist strap.
When handling components, attach an antistatic strap to your wrist and then to a metal area on the enclosure.
