Some people leave their power cords in while they repair a computer.
Some take out the power cord.
What do you do?
Why do you use that method instead of the other one?
My book tells me to unplug the system.
However, the teacher told me to keep it plugged in and attach the ESD bracelet's alligator clip to the metal frame of the box that way if a charge happens to your body the energy will be transferred to the metal frame of the box then the power cord and out to the ground.
