Ahhh, metal. You should already be using an ESD earthing strap when working with static-sensitive devices (hence the metal strap).

I don't quite understand "ESD proof."

There are different ESD Classifications. I can't find my notes so please don't quote my #'s.

Class 0= 0-400volt differential

Class 1 401-800volt differential and so forth up to Class 4

The trick is to have no chance for static to jump from piont A to point B
