RS PRO ESD Grounding Cord With 10 mm Socket

This ESD (electrostatic discharge) grounding cord from RS PRO is an antistatic device used to safely connect components in an electrostatic protected area (EPA). That can include linking a person working on sensitive electronic equipment to a grounded connection. This channels electrostatic discharge to the grounded point, protecting personnel and equipment from harmful electric shocks.

The grounding wire consists of a 4.5-metre straight cord, terminating in a conical head with a 1 megaohm (MΩ) resistor. The low-profile head shape means it's less likely to be accidentally knocked loose. The conductor is a strong 7-strand tinsel wire with a 2.4 mm polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sheath, which provides excellent electrical insulation. The wire connects to an ESD safety mat via a 10 mm ring.

You can use this ESD grounding cord in industrial or commercial applications, such product or machine assemblies, where electrostatic discharge is a cause for concern.
