Important Safety Reminder – Read Before Proceeding
Before attempting to discharge a CRT, make sure you’re not alone. Always have another person in the room while performing this procedure in case something goes wrong. CRT discharges involve lethal voltages, and although injuries are rare when done properly, accidents can happen—especially if you’re startled or working in an unfamiliar environment.
Also:
• Remove all jewelry (rings, bracelets, watches, necklaces). Metal conducts electricity and can cause severe burns or even arc in the presence of high voltage.
• Avoid clothing that builds static (like synthetic fleece, wool, or polyester). Stick to 100% cotton if possible.
• Work on a non-conductive surface, in a dry, well-lit environment.
Respect the danger, work carefully, and you’ll be fine—but having a second person nearby is not just smart, it’s potentially life-saving.
