[Elecraft] Anti Static Bench

[OK1RP/M0SIS]

Hi Rich,

regarding the ESD mat functionality my 2c info:
  
1. The top layer must be dissipative 
2. The bottom layer must be conductive 
3. Its nice when its oil, grease and solvent resistant, high temp resistant,
acid 
proof and knife cut proof material. 
4. Mat must be connected to ground thru 1.5M resistor, NOT ditectly in order
to thru body current limitation if an accident! 
5. Wristband is connected to mat in normal cases also thru 1.5M resistor. 

More info you can find here in article:
