Rule number 1: Prevent charge build-up!
Plastic packaging and other large plastic objects can transfer charges to conductive objects, which can then damage components. Except for special anti-static plastic, all plastic must be kept away from unconnected printed circuit board assemblies.
Rule number 2: If you need to work with electronic components or modules, connect yourself through a wristband to a grounded part inside the terminal.
Avoid touching connector pins/poles and components on printed circuit board assemblies.
Ensure that all components containing electronic parts are always stored in an ESD protection bag when handled outside the terminal.
Remember that the bags’ insulating properties gradually wears out. Always use a new bag.
