Summary
The video demonstrates how to set up an anti-static mat before working on a computer:
- Disconnect the computer and its cables from power and peripherals.
- Place the computer case on the mat.
- Snap the grounding lead onto the mat, then clip the other end to the computer case.
- Wear the wrist strap snugly against bare skin and connect its lead to the case.
This setup grounds the person, computer case, and mat together, helping reduce the risk of static discharge while servicing the computer. The speaker recommends including an anti-static mat in a field-service kit.
Main speaker: Mr. Canady, demonstrating the setup.
