The new ESD Association  web site is www.esda.org.
MIL-STD 1686 is at Rev. C. The MIL-HDBK is at Rev.B and is out of date in
some areas such as classification of sensitivity of parts.  There is no
handbook for MIL-STD 1686C. ANSI/ESD S20.20 contains a complete listing of
the ESD Association standards and test methods and can be downloaded from
the web site. The standard also identifies the susceptibility test methods
for assemblies and equipment.

Here's a few ESD Standards for you. While some may be out of print, they are
still valuable references.

1. MIL-HDBK 263A - Electrostatic Discharge Handbook for Protection of
Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies, and Equipment.

2. MIL-STD 1686B - Electrostatic Discharge Control Program for Protection of
Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies, and Equipment.

3. EIA-625 - Requirements for Handling Electrostatic Discharge Sensitive
(ESDS) Devices.

4. NHB 5300.4 (3L) Requirements for Electrostatic Discharge Control.

5. ANSI/EOS/ESD-S3.1-1991 - For Protection of Electrostatic Discharge
Susceptible Items - Ionization.

6. EOS/ESD-S6.1-1991 - EOS/ESD Associated Standard for Protection of
Electrostatic Discharge Susceptible Items - Grounding-Recommended Practice

7. ESD-ADV3.2-1995 - ESD Association Advisory for Protection of
Electrostatic Discharge Susceptible Items - Selection and Acceptance of Air
Ionizers.

You may also wish to get a copy of these ESD related documents. They can be
found on the JEDEC Website: http://www.jedec.org/

1. JESD22-A114-A - Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity Testing Human Body
Model.

2. JESD22-A115-A - Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity Testing Machine
Model.
