Product Overview
The Anti Static ESD Ground Socket is a device designed to provide a safe grounding point for ESD wrist straps or anti-static mat ground cables. These sockets are commonly installed at workstations where sensitive electronics are handled, such as:
- Electronics assembly lines
- Computer or mobile phone repair labs
- Component testing areas
How does it work?
- The ground socket is connected to earth ground (usually via the building’s electrical grounding system, a grounded metal plate, or an equipment chassis).
- The technician wears an anti-static wrist strap on their wrist.
- The wrist strap is connected via a cord to the ground socket.
- This way, any electrostatic charge accumulated in the technician’s body is safely discharged to ground, preventing damage to components.
