Chapter 19: Power and Electrical Safety Information • Always use an ESD grounding strap when you are handling components that are subject to ESD damage, and make sure that it is in direct contact with your skin. If a grounding strap is not available, hold the component in its antistatic bag (see Figure 94 on page 231) in one hand and touch the exposed, bare metal of the switch with the other hand immediately before inserting the component into the switch. WARNING: For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the ESD strap. The measurement must be in the range of 1 through 10 Mohms. • When handling any component that is subject to ESD damage and that is removed from the chassis, make sure the equipment end of your ESD strap is attached to the ESD point on the chassis. If no grounding strap is available, touch the exposed, bare metal of the switch to ground yourself before handling the component. • Avoid contact between the component that is subject to ESD damage and your clothing. ESD voltages emitted from clothing can damage components. • When removing or installing a component that is subject to ESD damage, always place it component-side up on an antistatic surface, in an antistatic card rack, or in an antistatic bag (see Figure 94 on page 231). If you are returning a component, place it in an antistatic bag before packing it. Figure 94: Place a Component into an Antistatic Bag CAUTION: ANSI/TIA/EIA-568 cables such as category 5e and category 6 can get electrostatically charged. In order to dissipate this charge, always ground the cables to a suitable and safe earth ground before connecting them to the system.
