This Part of BS 7506 provides information and guidance on methods for making reliable measurements of electrostatic phenomena and the relevant properties of materials.

This Part comprises the following:

  • review of basic electrostatics;
  • outline of the range of problems caused by static;
  • consideration of the role of materials and description of methods to minimize charge generation and achieve safe dissipation of static charge;
  • consideration of electrostatic applications;
  • recommendations for the control of the test environment conditions;
  • general consideration of the basic recommendations for reliable measurement of electrostatic parameters.
