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.
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 a risk of fire or electric shock.

do not use this (polarized) plug with
an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet
unless the blades can be fully inserted to
prevent blade exposure.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle, is intended to
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons.
