3.2 Installing the TP-1610
Electrical Earthing
Prior to installation of any board in a chassis, always correctly connect the
chassis to a safety ground according to the laws and regulations of the
country in which the installation is performed.
Electrical Component Sensitivity
Electronic components on printed circuit boards are extremely sensitive to
static electricity. Normal amounts of static electricity generated by clothing
can damage electronic equipment. To reduce the risk of damage due to
electrostatic discharge when installing or servicing electronic equipment, it is
recommended that anti-static earthing straps and mats be used.
