OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
-- If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the product,
be sure the antenna or cable system
is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Article
810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information
with regard to proper grounding of
the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding
electrode. See Figure A.
LIGHTNING -- For added protection for
this product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended
and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to
the product due to lightning and
power-line surges.
POWER LINES -- An outside antenna
system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or
other electric light or power circuits,
or where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, extreme
care should be taken to keep from

require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the
product to its normal operation.
·
If the product has been dropped or
damaged in any way.
·
When the product exhibits a distinct
change in performance -- this
indicates a need for service.
