Abstract
ESD control footwear is qualified using resistance measurements for use in explosives handling facilities. This paper explores the relationship between footwear resistance and the personal grounding performance in terms of measured resistance from body to ground and body voltage generated in a walk test with ’’antistatic’’ and ’’conductive’’ floors.
