Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is pulse of voltage running from a person to computer components. ESD can damage computer components. ESD happens because a human that works with a computer and computer itself have different voltages. To make voltages the same and prevent ESD from happening, a person who works with a computer needs to wear ESD strap. One end of ESD strap attaches to a person and another one to a computer. ESD strap usually looks like piece of clothing with a wire, one end of which attaches to a human body and another one to a computer case. The end that attaches to a human body is made of a material that conducts electricity and the end the end that attaches to a computer has a clip with a wire connecting both.
