<strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>ESD</strong> <strong>S20.20</strong>-<strong>2007</strong>(This annex is not part of <strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>ESD</strong> <strong>S20.20</strong>-<strong>2007</strong>)ANNEX A – ADDITIONAL PROCESS CONSIDERATIONSThe following sections provide guidance <strong>and</strong> outline documents that are available to help theusers evaluate additional control products <strong>and</strong> equipment. Users will need to develop their ownacceptance <strong>and</strong> compliance verification criteria as the industry has not yet defined required limitsfor these items.1. Automated H<strong>and</strong>lers (<strong>ESD</strong> SP10.1, Automated H<strong>and</strong>ling Equipment [AHE]). Todemonstrate <strong>ESD</strong> control in automated h<strong>and</strong>ling equipment, it may be necessary tomeasure resistance to ground of machine components <strong>and</strong> monitor or verify electrostaticcharge on product as it passes through the equipment. This can provide both continuousverification of <strong>ESD</strong> counter-measures <strong>and</strong> a method for locating sources of chargegeneration. This st<strong>and</strong>ard practice covers resistance-to-ground of machine components<strong>and</strong> sources of charge in automated h<strong>and</strong>ling equipment.2. Gloves (<strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>ESD</strong> SP15.1, St<strong>and</strong>ard Practice for In-Use Resistance Testing of Gloves<strong>and</strong> Finger Cots). This st<strong>and</strong>ard practice is intended to provide test procedures formeasuring the intrinsic electrical resistance of gloves <strong>and</strong> finger cots; <strong>and</strong> electricalresistance of gloves or finger cots <strong>and</strong> personnel together as a system. This st<strong>and</strong>ardpractice applies to all gloves <strong>and</strong> finger cots used to control <strong>ESD</strong>. This st<strong>and</strong>ard practiceprovides data that are relevant in the user’s specific environment <strong>and</strong> application.3. H<strong>and</strong> Tools (<strong>ESD</strong> STM13.1, Electrical Soldering/Desoldering H<strong>and</strong> Tools). Thisst<strong>and</strong>ard test method provides electric soldering/desoldering h<strong>and</strong> tool test methods formeasuring electrical leakage <strong>and</strong> tip to ground reference point resistance. The st<strong>and</strong>ardtest method provides parameters for electrical overstress (EOS) safe soldering operation.Even though not specifically discussed in STM13.1, battery powered, pneumatic <strong>and</strong> otherh<strong>and</strong> tools may also need to be evaluated.4. <strong>ESD</strong> H<strong>and</strong>book (TR20.20). The <strong>ESD</strong> Association St<strong>and</strong>ards Committee produced this<strong>ESD</strong> H<strong>and</strong>book for individuals <strong>and</strong> organizations that are faced with controlling electrostaticdischarge (<strong>ESD</strong>). It provides guidance that can be used for developing, implementing <strong>and</strong>monitoring an electrostatic discharge control program in accordance with <strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>ESD</strong><strong>S20.20</strong>. This H<strong>and</strong>book applies to activities that: manufacture, process, assemble, install,package, label, service, test, inspect or otherwise h<strong>and</strong>le electrical or electronic parts,assemblies <strong>and</strong> equipment susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharges greater thanor equal to 100 volts Human Body Model.Copyright 2010 by <strong>ESD</strong> Association.
