Sensitivity of Black Powder to Static Discharge

I have to add that 20K-100K volts means nothing, without knowing the amperage.
FWIW: I live in the Mojave Desert, and static is a real issue here(ave RH is 8-10%). The 'cling' from this static will lead to very inconsistent powder charges from any PM made of metal or plastic. I have my PMs and press hardwired grounded to a dedicated GND rod.
No more 'cling' issues, and the consistency of the charges either BP or 'white' has vastly improved.
