Every dry season, we always encounter the problem of static electricity. In fact, it is not only static electricity on clothes in daily life, but also static electricity in the computers we use. And static electricity can also cause damage to laptops, theoretically damaging the integrated blocks inside the PC such as CPU or motherboard graphics cards, because static electricity can be as high as tens of thousands of volts or even hundreds of thousands of volts, which will break through the parts. So, how to prevent frying your PC insides with static electricity? Please red on!
7 easy tips to prevent laptop static electricity
Here are some handy tricks about prevent frying your PC insides with static electricity :
Leave your PSU cable connected [but switch the unit off] to keep it grounded.
Avoid rubbing oneself against carpeted flooring.
Touch a metal part of the chassis itself prior to handling components.
Work on a hard, solid surface.
Use an ESD mat.
After using the laptop, you can put it in an anti-static bag, preferably a dark bag.
Wear an anti-static wristband and connect it to your PC case.
But fear not if you're concerned as the chance of you damaging a component through static charge is indeed low. In the wise words of Reddit users, "99% sure you won't have a problem unless you had just been dancing on the carpet, while on his trampoline, eating Cheetos, with a ominous thundercloud looming overhead, licking syrup off his hands."
Remember though, we're not removing static electricity. Think of these measures as means to offer electricity a faster route to ground and this is a better way to keep your laptopin a safe condition.
