IEC 61340-4-9:2010(E) provides specific test methods for evaluating electrical resistance of static control garments. This part defines the test methods for determining the electrical resistance from sleeve-to-sleeve and point-to-point of static control garments. The test methods defined in this standard utilize standard instruments to measure the resistance of static control garments. These methods are intended as qualification test procedures. They can also be used as periodic tests to ensure ongoing electrical integrity of the garment under ambient conditions.
