Jewel® Coil Cords meet and exceed the Wrist Band and Wrist Cord requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20 except that ESD S1.1 paragraph 5.9 states "Only wrist straps incorporating a nonstandard [resistor] value shall use the color red on any portion of the wrist strap."

Per ESD Handbook TR20.20 paragraph 5.3.2.2.2 Wrist Strap Ground Cord, "At first glance, the ground cord appears to be a relatively simple assembly. However, the design requirements are considerable, given the wide range of user applications and the durability requirements of constant tugging, flexing, and dragging over the edge of workstation tops and equipment chassis."
