Can the conductive shoes in the production workshop replace the anti-static shoes?
As we all know, anti-static shoes are one of the necessary anti-static equipment in the production workshops and advanced laboratories of microelectronics industries such as electronic semiconductor devices, electronic computers, electronic communication equipment and integrated circuits. The main purpose is to reduce or eliminate static electricity.
Many laymen are not very familiar with the similarities and differences between anti-static shoes and conductive shoes. I always feel that anti-static shoes are insulated shoes, which can be worn in the production workshop. In fact, this is not correct.
Anti-static shoes are protective shoes that can eliminate static electricity accumulation in the human body and prevent electric shock from power supply below 250V. The conductive shoes have good electrical conductivity and can eliminate the static electricity accumulation in the human body in a short time, and can only be used for anti-static protective shoes in places where there is no danger of electric shock.
It seems that there is still a fundamental difference between the two. Conductive shoes can't be used instead of anti-static shoes. So you should do your homework before you buy and use them. You can see which one you need, so you don't have to spend money. Useless.
