ESD Precautions
Electronic equipment is susceptible to damage by static electricity. To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) when you install or service the server:
-
Use a grounded antistatic wrist strap, foot strap, or equivalent safety equipment.
-
Place components on an antistatic surface, such as an antistatic discharge mat or an antistatic bag.
-
Wear an antistatic grounding wrist strap connected to a metal surface on the chassis when you work on system components.
 | Caution - Equipment damage: Electrostatic damage can permanently disable the system or require repair by authorized service technicians. |
