This guide emphasizes the critical safety precautions for PC technicians, particularly regarding static electricity and hardware repair. A small electrostatic discharge can severely damage sensitive electronics, yet humans typically only feel significant shocks. Technicians must avoid disassembling power supplies and CRT monitors; full replacements are necessary for defective units. Only trained professionals should service monitors. Adhering to these safety standards is vital to protect both the technician and the equipment from electrical hazards.
