ESD Flooring
The Current European Standard, BS EN 61340-5-1 ‘Protection of Electronic Devices from Electrostatic Phenomena’ is quite categorical, clear and unambiguous when it comes to describing and defining what is required from a floor in an area where ESD sensitive items are present. These floors are commonly, although incorrectly, referred to as anti static floors. A floor which allows the movement of ESD sensitive items within an EPA without additional protection, such as shielding bags, must comply with the following criteria:
The resistance to ground (Rg) of the person/footwear/floor combination must be less than 1 x 109 Ω (1 gigohm) provided any individuals’ body voltage is maintained at less than 100v.
