Chassis electrostatic removal method

On our long journey of DIY, have you ever encountered a static disaster? I have been deeply harmed by static electricity and have been exploring hard to find a way to eliminate static electricity. The following article tells me how to eliminate static electricity. I hope it can help you a little bit.

I remember that when the computer was just assembled back, it was normal to use it. I accidentally touched the rear panel of the chassis (except for the rear panel of the chassis, the rest of the chassis was painted and basically felt no static electricity was felt) and I was hit hard by the static electricity. I went to the dealer to review the next morning, but the merchant said this was a normal phenomenon and I could just pay attention when using it. Because ordinary families generally use two-phase power supplies without ground wires, the chassis cannot be grounded well, so they have to endure and try to be careful not to touch the exposed parts of the rear of the chassis, and just use it!

Later, in an accident, I accidentally "laid off" the speaker, so I had to use headphones instead. As soon as I got on, I was powered up. Now it was over, and I couldn't even listen to the headphones. Tell me, if I encounter this situation, it would be as painful as it would be. I made up my mind to "eliminate" the static electricity on the chassis.

I found a wire (ordinary wire is enough, but not enameled wire), connected to one end and connected to the exposed area at the back of the chassis. This method is OK, but it still has a little static electricity, not! If you want to do it, do it best. If you connect it to the ground from the power entrance, will it not have a better effect? The fixed power socket on my wall is two holes, no, look down along the line, hey! The power plug of a computer is three-headed, and most users use computer-specific sockets to adapt. After careful study, the middle part of this socket is a ground wire socket, and the two sides are live wires and neutral wires. Immediately remove the wire connected to the chassis, install a small plug, and insert it into the middle of the special socket. In this way, the ground wire of the computer power supply will be grounded and the static electricity will be completely exported. The effect is really good after trying it, without a slight static electricity, it is both beautiful and practical.
oh! By the way, I have another tip I forgot to tell you that maybe many friends are using monitor protection screens. This device can prevent radiation and static damage. The monitor protection screen has a lead wire to export the received static electricity. You can connect the other end of the lead to any part of the static electricity line just made. Just cut the static electricity on the static electricity line to expose the metal, so that the static electricity on the monitor protection screen can also be exported (Note: Maybe some "Shrimp friends" mistakenly believe that static electricity is because the motherboard and the chassis are not insulated well, which causes static electricity on the chassis. In fact, it is because the ground wire inside the chassis power supply is connected to the power shell, which causes static electricity to occur. The harm of static electricity to microcomputers is well known. If not done properly, it will damage various integrated chips on the internal boards of the chassis. Although it is "possible", there is still this probability. In short, I still hope that all shrimp friends will stay away from static electricity, have less dangers, and have more safety.
