• Document

• Document

•Document!
124

Document
• Where cards are located. • How cables are routed. • Orientation of cables and connectors. • Hardware used to secure each component. • Anything else that might cause confusion when reassembling.

Keep these tips in mind
• Document everything. • Shut off power. • Protect against ESD. • Grasp connectors by shells-not leads. • Never use force. • Release latches on connectors. • Rock expansion boards end to end.

Toolkit
• As a minimum, a computer technician should have the following hand tools:
– Screwdrivers – Tweezers – Long-nosed pliers – Tube for small parts.
145

Toolkit (continued)
– Compressed air – ESD tools – Multimeter – Flashlight – Nut driver set – Curved hemostats

150

What is Static Electricity
• Static electricity is generated when two dissimilar materials are rubbed together. • Static charges become greater when the humidity is low. • ESD does not have to be seen to cause damage.
151

Your greatest enemy when working in the computer is

Electrostatic Discharge or ESD.

152

Your best defense against ESD is an anti-static

wrist strap.

153

An internal resistor provides shock protection.

154

Switch off power at the computer and at the workbench...

155

...but leave the

computer plugged in.

156

Use anti-static mats on the workbench and floor.

157

Hold Circuit Boards by their edges

158

Store Circuit Boards in Anti-static Bags.

 159

Electricity and Safety
• Look for UL or CSA labels • Be careful around fans • Watch for sharp edges • Double-check the power before you remove or replace anything
160

General Safety Tips
• If in doubt, don’t. • Always use grounded outlets and power cords. • Switch off all equipment before you remove covers. • Always replace blown fuses with the correct rating and type.
» Continued…
161

Safety Tips (continued)
• Do not work alone. • Remove all jewelry. • Power supplies and monitors use and store potentially-lethal voltages.
162

The Power Supply
• Don’t fix it • Don’t open it • It isn’t worth it! • Only use UL or CSA approved supplies
163

Respect... not fear.

164

• Describe how static electricity charges are generated, and how to reduce their inadvertent generation. • Describe how electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage computer circuits. • Describe several techniques to prevent ESD damage when you work inside a computer. • Describe several quidelines to work safely around electrical devices.
