Can electricians wear anti-static shoes and work shoes?
First of all, the resistance of anti-static materials and insulating materials are different. Generally speaking, the resistance of the insulating edge is greater than 1012Ω, and the resistance of the anti-static electricity is between 106Ω and 1012Ω. The insulating rubber is non-conductive, and the anti-static material is conductive, but the resistance value is relatively large. The standard requirement is between 10^6 and 10^9.
Secondly, the performance of anti-static shoes and insulating shoes are different. Anti-static shoes are made by adding anti-static materials to the soles. Anti-static shoes have a weak conductive function, which can lead the excess charge of the human body to the ground, avoid the accumulation of charges and cause electrostatic discharge, thereby playing the role of eliminating and eliminating the static electricity of the human body. . The sole of the insulated shoe is made of non-conductive insulating material, which can isolate the human body from the earth, so that even if the human body touches the conductive body, it will not cause an electric shock accident.
Finally, anti-static shoes and insulated shoes have different application ranges. Anti-static shoes are generally used in electronic companies such as precision electronics and components, optical instruments, pharmaceutical companies, etc. During the use of anti-static shoes, friction does not generate static electricity, which can protect electronic products from static electricity. Insulated shoes are mainly It is to protect the human body from the influence of electricity. There are no special requirements for the ground and protective clothing. It is generally worn by electricians to prevent step voltage and electric shock, and also to prevent electric shock accidents due to ground conduction.
