Section 810 of the National Electric Cord, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mats 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
