It is necessary to install a grounding strip to remove static electricity from private cars. Static electricity buildup in winter can lead to hazards: Especially in winter or abnormally dry environments, static electricity cannot dissipate through the air. Installation ensures improved vehicle safety. For older vehicles with minor oil seepage, static electricity may generate sparks that pose certain life safety threats. While driving, unexpected static shocks may cause excessive fright, potentially leading to traffic accidents. Static electricity can harm human health: Accumulated static electricity in the human body can damage health, severely affecting metabolism, raising blood sugar levels, causing skin diseases, and leading to autonomic nervous system disorders, reduced immunity, and increased susceptibility to illnesses like colds. Particularly during refueling at gas stations, it may also trigger accidental incidents.
