I'm remodeling an office and would like to make the ground (carpet)=20 anti-static if possible. I'm using nylon carpet, not anything=20 ESD-specific, but I understand that if I place a grid of copper strips=20 (grounded) first and use conductive adhesive, it would make a noticeable=20 difference, even for non-ESD carpet The carpet manufacturer (Interface)=20 says that there is a bit of ESD "protection" in that carpet anyway. I don't need this to meet any spec or be certified, etc... just looking=20 to help protect all my open PCB's from possible damage while I'm here. Any of you know if this is worth the effort/cost? Or any other things I=20 can do to add a bit of ESD protection.
