Use and precautions of anti-static shoes and conductive shoes

Anti-static shoes are protective shoes that can eliminate the accumulation of static electricity on the human body and prevent electric shock from power supplies below 250V. Conductive shoes have good electrical conductivity, which can eliminate the accumulation of static electricity on the human body in a short time. They can only be used in protective shoes where there is no danger of electric shock. This is an important difference from antistatic shoes. Various products of anti-static shoes and conductive shoes shall meet the requirements of GB4385-1995 "Technical Requirements for Anti-static Shoes and Conductive Shoes".


Use and precautions of anti-static shoes and conductive shoes


1. Anti-static shoes and conductive shoes have the function of eliminating static electricity accumulation on the human body, and can be used in flammable and explosive working places. However, the two differences are that anti-static shoes can also prevent electric shock from power equipment below 250V, while conductive shoes cannot be used in dangerous places with electric shock.


2. Although anti-static shoes have the function of preventing electric shock, it is forbidden to use them as insulating shoes.


3. When wearing anti-static shoes and conductive materials, you should not wear insulated woolen socks and insulated insoles at the same time.


4. The place where anti-static shoes are used should be anti-static ground, and the place where conductive shoes are used should be conductive ground.


5. Anti-static shoes should be used with anti-static clothing at the same time.


6. During the wearing process of anti-static shoes and conductive shoes, a resistance test of the shoes should generally be performed within 200h. If the resistance is not within the specified range, it cannot be used as an anti-static shoes or conductive shoes.
