Wet Ground Strap Electrode with Cable
Ground Strap Electrode is a wet-type ground strap with a velcro strap, a 1.5m connection cable, and a DIN 1.5mm touch-proof (TP) socket. Must be soaked in saline solution before use.
This Ground Strap Electrode has a velcro strap for proper fixation of the ground strap. The ground strap's inside contains a felt pad that must be soaked with a saline solution such as water (containing salt) or electrolyte gel before use. The width of the strap itself is 2cm and is available in two different lengths: 25cm and 55cm. Ground straps have a blue strap.
Ground straps are available in various lengths whereby the length refers to the length of the entire strap:
- 25cm length (entire strap) x 2.0cm width; 12cm felt pad length
- 55cm length (entire strap) x 2.0cm width; 18cm felt pad length
This ground strap electrode comes assembled with a connection cable. The cable length is 1.5m and terminates in a DIN 1.5mm touch-proof (TP) socket (female connector).
Ground strap electrodes are commonly used in EMG, EP, and EEG examinations.
