Electronic Equipment Handling Precautions
With the AC power cord unplugged and the sheet metal removed, the components
inside your computer are vulnerable to damage caused by static discharge. Your body
and clothing are capable of storing an electrical charge that can damage or destroy
unprotected electronic components. Prior to handling any computer hardware, make
sure your work area is properly protected against static discharge. There are a number
of commercially available static protection devices, like the wrist strap shown below,
designed specifically to protect your equipment from harmful static discharge.
