5. Conclusion
Electrostatic discharges are a phenomenon frequently encountered both in everyday life (for example, the electrostatic discharge felt in dry weather when getting out of a car, the charge being caused by clothes rubbing against the seats), and in a multitude of industrial situations. They can lead to material or human accidents (fires, explosions, lethal electric shocks) if precautions are not taken (see the INRS website ).
In the electronics industry, the ever-decreasing size of components means greater vulnerability to electrostatic hazards. Electrostatic discharges represent an omnipresent, albeit invisible, risk that we must learn to guard against.
