Best Answer

You can ground the item that has a build up of the static charge. Ground straps are typically worn when working on static-discharge sensitive components like circuit boards in a server.

Otherwise, ground the item to discharge the static charge.

Note that the correct term is "static charge", which refers to the buildup or deficiency of electrons on a charged body.
