And how is it generated? You know the drill!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Static electricity is an electric charge that accumulates on the surface of an object and does not move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This usually happens when two objects rub together, like when you rub a balloon against your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Electrons can move from one object to another, causing one object to be positively charged and the other negatively charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially in a workplace, static electricity can be generated when there\u2019s a friction between the soles and the floor which you cannot feel until it reaches 3500 volts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When these charges are released, such as when you touch a metal object after walking on a carpet, there can be an electric spark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Static electricity can be dangerous in certain places, such as in factories that work with flammable materials or sensitive electronic equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s important to control static electricity so that it doesn&#8217;t cause problems or damage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ESD vs antistatic shoes, what\u2019s the difference?
