Discharge Strap
I am going to assemble a pc, and I'm a little worried about static discharge messing up my computer.?
Most tutorials on building a pc recommend getting an anti-static wrist strap. I was wondering If wearing rubber gloves (like the think tight white ones doctors wear) would be adequate? Also, people suggest not to assemble a pc in a room whose floor is carpeted. Would it be fine if i just wore sneakers or boots, or sandals to keep the static electricity from the carpet from getting into me? Or should I do something else????? Please help!
I also forgot to mention whether it would be wise to leave a humidifier on a little bit before assembling the pc and during the assembly (since static electricity is most present under dry conditions)?
DO NOT wear rubber gloves .... just make sure you're touching a part of the metal case before taking components from their anti-static bags .... the idea is to keep yourself grounded at all times ..... I usually just lean my forearm or elbow on the case ..or make sure it's touching my leg when I fit components
Another trick (although it has inherant risks ) is to plug the power cord into the wall socket (NOT TURNED ON) just plugged in as that has a biult in earthing connector
