WARNING:
All 3M Shoe Grounding Straps and
Assemblies should not be used in
areas where the individual may come
in contact with electrical circuitry
exceeding 250 volts.
How Toe Grounders Work
Toe grounders virtually eliminates a charge on a person by electrically connecting the
person to a grounded surface. A conductive ribbon placed inside the wearer’s shoe or
sock makes electrical contact with the skin through perspiration. The assembly contains
a current-limiting resistor which protects the operator from accidental exposure to
electricity. Toe grounders must be worn on both feet to maintain ground contact while
walking.
