The monitor hold 20,000 or more volts (depending on the monitor size and components). Voltage can still be present after turning off the power. Most technicians who work on monitors have special training in working on high-voltage equipment. If you must remove the monitor case to work inside a monitor, safety rules include the following: (1) do not wear the antistatic wrist strap; (2) unplug the AC cord from the monitor or wall outlet; (3) do not use regular test equipment to measure the monitor's high voltages.

What is antistatic work wear?

Generally, antistatic work wear is mainly generated from the working environment where it need to prevent the antistatic, specifically, it is the work wear having antistatic performance which is made from conductive material or insulating material, it can take the antistatic out of working through its special material, wipe out the dangerous from electrostatic discharging. Some job have strict request to working environment, clearly stated that it cannot have electrostatic, if having electrostatic will influence the product quality, this is minor matter, if it cause fire disaster even explosion , it will have thread to life safety which is more serious matter. However antistatic work wear comes out , it will be more helpful to solve the electrostatic disturb while working, prevent the electrostatic generate.Which industry need antistatic work wear?Colliery / oil / gas / instrument / chemical and such industry having antistatic requirement, and working environment having powder or easy explosion or easy flaming.What should be noticed while wearing the antistatic clothing?1、During wearing antistatic clothing, it needs to be matched with antistatic shoes.2、After using antistatic clothing, it should be checked in time, if the performance lose efficacy, it cannot be used any more.3、It cannot wearing any metal material on antistatic clothing. Such metal instrument should be put inside the antistatic clothing, forbidden exposure outside.4、Forbidden to put on or put off the work clothing on electrostatic sensitive product site.( should in specified changing room) work clothing 's button should all buckled up, better not let the clothing on loosen status.5、Please buy the antistatic work wear from regular factory, and before using it, we should test the work wear quality, to make sure no risk at all.Antistatic work clothing proceed standardAntistatic work wear style is accordance with national standard GB12014-2009, the feature is :"three tight style"(collar tight/ cuff tight/ sweep tight) upper, bottoms is straight leg pants; coverall clothing.

Should i wear a grounding strap when servicing a CRT monitor?

I would suggest not wearing one, because the CRT uses very high voltages which could potentially remain while you are servicing it. Grounding yourself will put you at a greater risk of serious shock. The parts in a CRT are generally not as likely to be static sensitive as many other electronic devices, so the need for a grounding strap is not as great. Also, before working with a CRT, do some research into other precautions you should take to avoid electric shock.
