Introduction:
Antistatic and ESD safety shoes are both conductive safety shoes.
This means they protect electrical equipment by sending (conducting) electrical charges to the ground, preventing a static shock, charge or spark. Conductive safety shoes are worn in industries in which a static shock is problematic or could trigger a fire or explosion and are not the same as isolating safety shoes, like EH-rated safety shoes, which protect you from completing an electrical circuit to the ground.
Static Dissipating Shoes are designed to dissipate (reduce) the amount of static electricity build-up on your body. Unlike Electrical Hazard Safety Shoes, Static Dissipating Shoes can be either safety toe or non-safety. Static Dissipating shoes actually conduct static electricity through the linings, insole, outsole, cement and into the ground. Static Dissipating Safety Shoes and non-Safety Shoes have a "SD" clearly visible on the ASTM label sewn inside the safety shoes. ASTM F2413-05 SD. Check your shoes to make sure they are compliant.
