Ground Connection
Two methods are available for grounding the GNSS Surge arrester:
1. The ground-wire screw connection.
Use the largest possible
gauge wire and the shortest possible ground path. Hole diameter
allows up to 8 AWG wire (0.129 in or 3.26 mm). This wire should
be as short as possible, and connected to a good earth ground.
2. Hard-mounting directly to a grounded metal surface.
Weather Sealing the Connections
The best protection is provided by placing all connections in appropriate
weather-tight boxes.
If this level of protection is not available then
weatherproof type-F connectors and proper tools for preparation and
crimping/compressing will provide some protection. Consider purchas-
ing RF cables of various standard and custom lengths manufactured by
Arbiter Systems.
