What problems does static electricity cause explain how the problem could be solved?

Answer 1

Static electricity has the potential (no pun intended!) to destroy semiconductors. When handling semiconductors, proper precautions need to be taken. There are wrist ground straps, shoe coverings, non-conductive sheets and bags and many other objects for protecting these devices. One of the best ways to reduce and/or eliminate static electricity is to raise the indoor humidity to between 40% and 50%. You should also wear cotton clothing and leather shoes. Dry clothing using Fabric softener sheets and use them to rub the furniture. Use a balanced polarity ionizer fan to help balance the charge in the air.
