Electrostatic charges have the potential to damage the load cells. For this reason, we recommend that you connect the top plate of each cell to the bottom plate of each cell using a copper conductor of suitable cross-section. Then, connect all the lower plates to each other and connect them to the same grounding network.
This allows electrostatic charges to be discharged to the ground without passing through and damaging the load cells.
A correctly grounded system removes the possibility of future damage to the cells and the instrument connected to them.
Extending the earthing system through the metal parts of the structure being weighedis absolutely forbidden.
