The ESD Association (ESDA) has a new parent Standard that was designed to replace the MIL-STD-1686 and the ANSI/EIA-625 documents. Both agencies are looking to adopt the ANSI/ESD-S20.20 document as a replacement for their documents. This may be completed (adopted) by the end of this year if everything goes well.
The ESDA’s standard for floors is the ANSI/ESD-S7.1. This standard and the ANSI/ESD S20.20 recommends that the floor be less than 1x109 ohms tested with a megohmeter at 100 VDC and at 3 feet separation of ESD S4.1 electrodes (5 lb).
