Connect Anti Static Mat To Ground

Attach the other end of the strap to a common ground.

Connect anti static mat to ground.

Turn mat over and insert snap and screw into threaded post on the underside of the mat. This eyelet is a metal ring that you can screw into the nearest electrical outlet to transfer static from the ground to the ground line in your building. Connect the end of the wire leader directly to a grounded source like the screw in an electrical receptacle to complete installation. If you connect earth directly to that surface it will dissipate charge.

Whichever cable you use it will have a ground cable attached to it that ends in an eyelet. The solderless terminal can be connected to an electrical outlet using the screw in the outlet cover. If you connect earth directly to that surface it will dissipate charge. Use the cord to connect all electrically static dissipative floor mats to a building ground.

At the other end of the cord attached to your wrist strap is an alligator clip that you can use to connect yourself to a common ground. Integral 1 x 10 6 ohm 1 megaohm resistor ground cord is 15. At a static free work station a common ground point will be noted by a symbol that looks like a black and white target. Just make sure you do not use the alligator clip to ground the wrist strap an anti static mat.

Align screw with post on the underside of ground cord and screw it firmly into the post. If an anti static mat is isolated from electrical ground by insulators carpets painted floors or tables you need to connect it to an electrical outlet by using a grounding cable. The snap is where you will connect the grounding cable.
