Hi Arno,
John gave you the short answer...the MFG should have installation
instructions.  In all of the installation I have been party, there is a grid
of copper tape laid down in the conductive adhesive.  This keeps the
adhesive from getting excessively resistive over large areas.  Surface
resistance tests run anywhere from 100k-400k ohms when it's all done.  Note
that if you are installing relay racks or metal benches that you can run
into ground loops.
Have a Great Day,

Dear Group,

Do conductive tiles in floors for ESD prevention have to be connected
together (e.g. through a low impedance earth bond) ?
