Summary: | An improved electrostatic discharge protection guide rail system for a PCB which is capable of providing an electrostatic discharge protection function so that a PCB of a plug-in unit disposed in a sub-rack of an electronic instrument from a damage due to an electrostatic discharge (ESD), which includes an ESD ground surface formed on the PCB, an engaging jaw portion formed in a lower portion of the guide rail and having a groove, and an insertion groove formed in a side portion of the guide rail in order for the ESD strip to be inserted therein, wherein the bent ESD strip is inserted into the insertion groove, the ESD ground surface contact portion and the ESD PCB contact portion are inserted into a groove formed in the engaging jaw portion of the guide rail, both ends of the ESD PCB having a copper plate are protruded beyond a side surface of a sub-rack and horizontally cross with respect to the parallel guide rails, and a ground cable is connected to both ends of the ESD PCB, respectively. |
