ABSTRACT:
A dual path static control garment is formed of a garment material having a continuous grid of conductive fibers throughout the body section and sleeves. One elastic wrist hugging cuff is formed of an electrically conductive material and thereby connects one wrist of the wearer, through the garment itself, to a first grounding terminal secured to a body section of the garment. A second and independent grounding path is provided from the second cuff to a second grounding terminal on the body section. The second path is provided by a cuff assembly having an inner conductive wrist hugging cuff and an outer nonconductive cuff connected to the garment sleeve. A conductive ribbon encased in an insulating sheath electrically interconnects the inner conductive cuff to the second grounding terminal and is insulated from the garment and its sleeves to provide the second independent grounding path.
