From ESD Association ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20 section 5.3.2.1:
"When people are charged with static electricity, they can release stored energy to conductive objects such as doorknobs and electronic circuits. This transfer of energy is called an electrostatic discharge. Sometimes the electrostatic discharge causes visible sparks, but more often, it is both unseen and unfelt. Electrostatic discharges can damage ESD sensitive components used in modern electronics.
Static electricity is a natural phenomenon that occurs in all climates and at all levels of relative humidity year round. Most people cannot feel an electrostatic discharge unless the static voltage is greater than 2000 volts. However, some electronic circuitry can be damaged by ESD that is less than 2000 volts. The damage can be done without people having any sensation of the ESD event.
When a wrist strap is worn properly and connected to ground, the person wearing it will stay near ground potential."

Minimum cable size for 12v dc?
It depends on the current requirement. Specify an application or describe what is being powered by the 12 V to get an answer.
What are DC Choppers?
Dc chopper is a static device which converts constant dc source to variable dc.
Can a rectifier work on DC?
Well, yes. But it isn't much needed as DC is already DC.
What device used to increase or decrease DC voltage?
A DC-to-DC converter is the general term for a device that changes DC voltage at one level to another.
What is a chopper in power electronics?
dc to dc converter
Design of air gap in dc machines?
Minimum distance of air gap
What is the minimum wage in Washington, D.C.?
The minimum wage in Washington DC is $8.25 an hour, or $2.77 for tipped employees. The minimum wage is automatically set to a $1 / hour more than the federal minimum wage.
What is a the minimum age for testing for HIV in the US and particularly in Wash. DC?
There is no minimum age for HIV testing. In fact, infants are often tested.
Which amendment allowed Washington DC to have a minimum number of electoral votes?
The 23rd Amendment.
Which electromegnetic wave have minimum frequency?
Direct Current (DC) has an infinite wave length, hence 0 frequency.
Where did martin Luther king jr give his speech?
To answer this question we need to know the name of the speech. He gave many speeches.
Why is Washington dc part of Maryland and Virginia?
The location was picked because it was felt to be in the middle of the North and South parts of the USA.
Why did Alexander Hamilton move the capital to the south?
Because the south felt left out. So Hamilton moved it down to Washington DC
