Introduction

In electronics manufacturing environment specially designed protective clothing is often used to minimise accumulation and retention of the charge. This clothing, called an ESD garment, is worn over the ordinary clothing of the operator. Thus it should also provide shielding against any surface voltages or voltage transients arising from underlying garments.

In some cases the ESD garments are not used just to prevent ESD damage to electronics but also to prevent theelectronics from being damaged by the contamination of dust particles (cleanroom clothing).
