Static equilibrium is defined as a state where an object is not accelerating in any way. The two conditions for the equilibrium of a rigid body (such as a meter stick) are 1. the vector sum of forces on the body must be zero and 2. the vector sum of torques on the body must be zero.

For equilibrium the body should be in translational equilibrium (vector sum of forces on the body must be zero) and rotational equilibrium (the vector sum of torques on the body must be zero).
