Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Service 2-3
The other end of the antistatic wrist strap lead should be connected to one of the
following:
■ A ground mat
■ The chassis metal as a ground
The grounded mat or the chassis must be connected to a facility ground to
prevent a floating ground.
■ Keep blade servers in the antistatic bags until they are needed.
■ Remove a blade server from its antistatic bag only when wearing a properly
connected ground strap.
■ Place circuit blade servers that are out of their antistatic bags on an antistatic mat
if one is available and the mat is grounded to a facility electrical service ground.
Do not place blade servers on top of an antistatic bag unless the outside of the bag
also has antistatic protective properties.
