If you would like to understand more about ESD, get in touch with us about our ESD training.
Below is some quick helpful questions and answers:
Question – What is ESD Answer – Electro Static Discharge. An uncontrolled surge of ‘static’ between objects with different voltage potentials.
Question – What is an EPA Answer – Electrostatic Protected Area. A static-safe handling area could be a bench, a room or any other designated area and should not have and ‘static field’ greater than 100v maximum!
Question – What is Static Answer – An electrical charge/ field that isn’t moving
Question – What is Anti Static Answer – Minimal generation or retention of a ‘static’ charge.
Question – What does ‘conductive’ mean Answer – Low resistance. IE less than 1 meg-ohm (106) and 1000 meg-ohm (109)
Question – What is ‘static dissipative’ Answer – Increased resistance, which protects better against an ESD (between 1 meg-ohm and 1000 meg-ohm)
Question – What is ‘Insulative’ Answer – Does not allow the free flow of electrons, therefore it will more than likely cause problems to prevent a path to earth, hold a ‘static’ field etc.
Question – What is ‘Faraday Cage’ Answer – A conductive battier against ESD IE a metallised shielding bad or conductive box.
Question – What is ‘tribocharge’ Answer – To generate ‘static’ by rubbing or separating of surfaces.
Question – What is ‘Potential Difference’ Answer – A static voltage difference between two items.
