away from power lines.
20.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
- If an outside antenna
or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the
antenna or cable system is grounded by a skilled person so
as to provide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding
of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding connectors, location of antenna discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode. See Figure below.
