EBP Box with 2 x 4 mm Plug Socket and 1 x 10 mm Stud, Yellow, 3 m Ground Cord - Desco 231380

The EBP box meets the IEC 61340-5-1 requirement to connect all elements of an ESD protected area to a common connection point. Two 4 mm sockets accept the banana plugs of wrist strap cords, and the 10 mm stud grounds a bench mat or trolley. Each connector runs through its own 1 megohm current-limiting resistor, keeping the fault current below 0.3 mA at 240 V in case of inadvertent contact with mains voltage.

Key benefits

• Two wrist strap positions with 4 mm sockets plus one 10 mm stud for the mat.
• One 1 megohm, 1/2 W resistor per connector, withstands 500 V DC for 6 minutes.
• 3 m black ground cord, exits to the left or right.
• Flat design, 20 mm high, for mounting on the bench surface.
• Two mounting screws and a spare ring terminal included.

Applications

For ESD workstations where operators use wrist strap cords with banana plugs and a mat with a 10 mm socket also needs grounding, for example at double workstations in assembly and repair.

Standards

Common connection point (earth bonding point) per IEC 61340-5-1 for bonding personnel and ESD control items to one potential.
