Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 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 the antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. 7 6 5 4 3 1 2 1 Electric service equipment 2 Power service grounding electrode system 3 Ground clamps 4 Grounding conductors 5 Antenna discharge unit 6 Grounding clamp 7 Antenna lead-in wire 14 Lightning-For added protection for your recorder during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to your recorder due to lightning and power-line surges. 15 Power lines-An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric lights 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 because contact with them might be fatal. 16 Overloading-Do not overload power outlets and extension cords, because this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. 17 Object and liquid entry-Never push objects of any kind into your recorder through any openings, because they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on your recorder. 18 Servicing-Do not attempt to service your recorder yourself, because opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 19 Damage requiring service-Unplug your recorder from the power outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: • When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged. • If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into your recorder. • If your recorder has been exposed to rain or water. • If your recorder does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions, because an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore your recorder to its normal operation. • If your recorder has been dropped or damaged in any way. • When your recorder exhibits a distinct change in performance which indicates a need for service. 20 Replacement parts-When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards. 21 Safety check-Upon completion of any service or repairs to your recorder, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that your recorder is in proper operating condition. 22 Heat-Your recorder should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 23 Do not place your recorder on furniture that is capapble of being tilted by a child or an adult leaning, pulling, standing, or climbing on it. If your recorder falls, it can cause serious injury or even death. Recycling Your recorder's packaging materials are recyclable and can be reused.
