The Earth Bonding Point (EBP) plug is designed to provide a common ground point for grounding using protective earth in an ESD protected area (EPA). The plug fits into the mains supply socket, making a connection with the earth conductor only. In place of the live and neutral pins are moulded insulating plastic pins to allow positive location in the socket. Connectors on the front of the plug are available for connection via ground cords to the various elements of the EPA.
RS PRO have a great range of ESD grounding accessories including bonding plugs, bonding boxes, bonding brackets, sockets and cords plus many more to help eliminate the build up of static discharge which can be a risk to static sensitive components or devices.
ESD grounding accessories form part of a workplace safety system to monitor and/or eliminate the build-up or discharge of static electricity that may pose a risk to electrical components such as computer hard drives. Earth bonding plugs (also called grounding plugs) are designed as a safe and easy way to create an effective ESD grounding point for ESD products and ESD test equipment within an ESD protected area (EPA).
What are ESD grounding accessories used for?
ESD (electrostatic discharge) grounding accessories are components within ESD grounding loops. These accessories are used in workplaces where sensitive electronic equipment must be protected from static electricity, or where there’s a danger of flammable liquids or gases igniting.
ESD protection is achieved by electrical grounding. Grounding accessories are components that may be required as part of an entire ESD grounding system. They’re often used to connect and integrate ESD-safe mats, ESD continuous monitors, wrist straps, ESD safe shoe covers and other apparel, or ESD-safe surfaces.
ESD dissipative turntable which is excellent for working on heavy assemblies within an EPA. The turntable is octagon shaped, made from galvanised steel with a durable 6.35 mm thick conductive foam surface. A low profile if only 25.4 mm high provides you with a flexible and accessible surface which has a weight capacity of 23 kg. The electrostatic charges are removed to ground by contact on a grounded ESD work surface or by a ground cord from a ring terminal.
