There is to be an IEC standard IEC61340 on this subject: IEC 61340-4-1, Ed. 2: Electrostatics - Part 4-1: Standard test methods for specific applications - Electrical resistance of floor coverings and installed floors IEC 61340-4-5: Electrostatics - Part 4-5: Standard test methods for specific applications - Methods for characterising the electrostatic protection of footwear and flooring in combination Information about work in IEC TC101 on this subject is available on the public part of the IEC web site http|://www.iec.ch If you need more information, please contact me by e-mail. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
