B. 3M^™ Wrist Strap Grounding System 3042: This is an accessory product that can be permanently
mounted to a laminate‑covered workbench. It is designed to allow the operator(s) at that bench to
connect wrist strap cords to the same ground to which the laminate benchtop is connected. The 3M
Grounding System is a small module containing two banana jacks, side-­by‑side, which will accept the
banana plugs on the ground cords of standard static control wrist straps.

C. 3M^™ Common Point Grounding System 3047: This is a multi‑terminal common point grounding device
that mounts on the underside or on top of a laminate‑covered workbench. It not only grounds the work
surface laminate, but also allows up to six additional static control products to be connected to that
same ground point through a common buss. If a 3M Grounding System is used to ground a dissipative
laminate work surface, a 3M^™ Grounding Kit for Static Protective Hard Laminate is not necessary.
