# Open-hardware for electrostatic discharge testing (O-ESD)
O-ESD is open-hardware project for (pre-compliance) [ESD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_discharge) [immunity testing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61000-4-2) in accordance with [IEC/EN 61000&#8209;4&#8209;2](https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/68954) standard. It is a stand-alone battery-powered portable device that can produce low-energy voltage pulses in the range from 15&nbsp;kV to 15&nbsp;kV. All electronic devices must be immune to a certain level of ESD, as ESD happens every day between humans and electronic devices.<br>
