Step 2: Attach Ground Point to

Modmat Snap

The first generation GamersNexus Anti-

Static Modmat includes a 10mm female

snap socket in one corner. The Ground

Point can attach to the metal socket,

illustrated above, by simply lining-up the

socket and stud, then snapping them

together. Apply force from both sides of

the mat. If you need to remove the

Ground Point, simply lift up on the

Ground Point to separate it from the mat.

This will help ground the work surface

and all attached devices to help protect

against ESD (electro-static discharge).

Step 3: Attach Ring Terminal to

Ground Location (USA)

At this stage, you can connect the ring

terminal to the grounding location. For a

standard US outlet, assuming a correctly

wired building, you may connect the

Ring Terminal from the Ground Point

cable to a "green wire" grounding point.

Attach the ring terminal to the central

screw in a US standard 110VAC

outlet. The ring terminal should be on

the 'outside' of the outlet faceplate;

remove the screw, mount the ring

terminal, and re-insert the screw into its

socket. We have found that this is more

effective than grounding via the third

ground pin on a plug. Not all outlets

ground the central screw. Please test or

research your outlet to understand its

grounding configuration. Failure to

properly use the terminal ring, and

failure to research the grounding

location's wiring, could result in lack of

grounding. Connecting the ring terminal

to an incorrect plug or pin in an outlet

(e.g. hot plugs) could result in electric

shock, fire, and/or severe injury.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT

OR FORM CONTACT BETWEEN

THE RING TERMINAL AND A

HOT PLUG OR PIN. DO NOT

CONNECT RING TERMINAL TO

ANY PIN THAT YOU DON'T

UNDERSTAND.

NOTE: Usage Without

Terminating at an Outlet (e.g. Non-

US Usage)

Although less effective, you could also

plug a PC power supply straight into the

wall (without the ground point attached

and with the PSU switch off), then tape

the ground point to the external PSU

shell, or seat the ground point

underneath the PSU shell. Painted shells

won't work as well as exposed metal

(e.g. grounding to a steel chassis that

already has an installed PSU, via

taping the ring terminal to the case or

using a screw to hold it in place), but

this will provide some level of assurance

while offering a secondary grounding

method, and one which does not require
