OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna is connected to your tuner or tuner/pre
-
amplifier, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro
-
vide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
No. 701984, provides information with respect to proper ground-
ing 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 elec
-
trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
a. Use No.10 AWG (5.3 mm2) copper, No.8 AWG (8.4 mm2) alu
-
minum, No.17 AWG (1.0 mm2) copper clad steel or bronze
wire, or larger, as a ground wire.
b. Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand-
off insulators spaced from 46 feet (1.221.83 m) apart.
c. Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where
lead-in enters house.
d. Use jumper wire not smaller than No.6 AWG (13.3 mm2) cop-
per, or the equivalent, when a separate antenna grounding
electrode is used. See NEC Section 810-21 (j).
