Connect Anti Static Mat To Ground

Integral 1 x 10 6 ohm 1 megaohm resistor ground cord is 15.

Connect anti static mat to ground.

Just make sure you do not use the alligator clip to ground the wrist strap an anti static mat. Use the cord to connect all electrically static dissipative floor mats to a building ground. To ground anti static mats we insert a conductive snap on the corner of the anti static mat. This eyelet is a metal ring that you can screw into the nearest electrical outlet to transfer static from the ground to the ground line in your building.

The top of your mat is static dissipative. At the other end of the cord attached to your wrist strap is an alligator clip that you can use to connect yourself to a common ground. However you can t and shouldn t rely on that as a safe known or reliable resistance to earth. At a static free work station a common ground point will be noted by a symbol that looks like a black and white target.

Align screw with post on the underside of ground cord and screw it firmly into the post. The solderless terminal can be connected to an electrical outlet using the screw in the outlet cover. Whichever cable you use it will have a ground cable attached to it that ends in an eyelet. Turn mat over and insert snap and screw into threaded post on the underside of the mat.

Connect the end of the wire leader directly to a grounded source like the screw in an electrical receptacle to complete installation. The snap is where you will connect the grounding cable. Attach the other end of the strap to a common ground.
