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,pro-
vides 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 require-
ments for the grounding electrode.See Figure A.
18.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 touching such power lines or circuits,as
contact with them might be fatal.
19. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords,or
integral convenience receptacles,as this can result in
