Without an ESD Kit

When an ESD kit is not available, use the following procedures to reduce the possibility of an electrostatic discharge by ensuring that your body and the subassembly are at the same electrostatic potential.

These procedures are not a substitute for the use of an ESD kit. Follow them only when an ESD kit is not available.

Before touching any FRU, touch a bare (unpainted) metal surface of the cabinet or storage system.

Before removing any FRU from its antistatic bag, place one hand firmly on a bare metal surface of the storage system, and at the same time, pick up the FRU while it is still sealed in the antistatic bag. Once you have done this, do not move around the room or touch other furnishings, personnel, or surfaces until you have installed the FRU.

When you remove a FRU from the antistatic bag, avoid touching any electronic components and circuits on it.

If you must move around the room or touch other surfaces before installing a FRU, first place the FRU back in the antistatic bag. When you are ready again to install the FRU, repeat these procedures.
