Static discharge is a term that refers to electricity at rest that produces excess cations ... or anions ... A disproportionate number of ions can create a number of problems, such as the risk of equipment damage, minor electrical shocks to workers, and fires. To combat these risks, manufacturers produce static eliminators. These, also known as antistatic devices, are any product that protects susceptible products from the effects of static electricity, by either dampening, reducing, or otherwise inhibiting its buildup or discharge.
