You can use a piece of ordinary wire or just leave one hand always touching the metalic ground of the device you're about to insert or remove circuits into or from.

What is the function of anti static mat?
An anti-static mat is usually made of a conductive plastic. Usually, on one corner there is a snap connector. From that snap connector there is a long, (usually GREEN) wire, as well as a coiled wire that goes to a wrist strap. The green wire goes to the round GROUND connector of an AC wall socket. The coiled wire that goes to a wrist strap goes just like that. Wrap the wrist strap around your wrist. The reason for this setup is, through the green wire to the ground connector, you put both the mat and your body at ground potential. It takes the static electricity from your body,via the wrist strap, and from the mat to ground. Be VERY CAREFULL!! YOU MUST KNOW WHERE THE GROUND IS ON AN AC OUTLET TO USE THIS AS I HAVE OUTLINED. If you do not know where the ground pin is on an AC outlet, you should not use it.

Can a ratchet strap be used for the lifting of equipment?
Well they weren't really designed to but i guess it is possible. Of course i recommend not doing this as it is not safe. You should only use products designed for lifting purpose's. Whether you use a ratchet strap to lift something all depending on its size as well. I recommend using dolly (Two-Wheel Cart). Hope this helped. Sorry if it didn't and again this could be VERY dangerous and i do not recommend using them for the purpose you want to use them for.
