What are the necessary precautions to prevent accidental static charges to the components?
A.
First touch a grounded portion of the chassis.
B.
Hold the power cable
C.
Use the ESD protection kit
Correct Answer
A. First touch a grounded portion of the chassis.
Explanation To prevent accidental static charges to the components during the disassembly procedure, it is necessary to first touch a grounded portion of the chassis.
