14 ENGLISH ANTENNA WARNING • If you are using an outdoor antenna, please install it away from electrical wires to make sure it does not touch any nearby wires even when it falls down due to heavy wind. --Failure to do so may cause electric shock or physical injury. CAUTION • To prevent any water flowing into the product, install a drip loop in the outdoor antenna wire where it comes indoors. --Raindrops flowing into the product may cause fire or electric shock. Outdoor Antenna Grounding • If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits as death or serious injury can occur. Be sure the antenna system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in the U.S.A. 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 conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode.

ENGLISH
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outdoor antenna is installed,
follow the precautions below. An
outdoor antenna system should
not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or
where it can come in contact with
such power lines or circuits as death
or serious injury can occur. Be sure
the antenna system is grounded to
provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code (NEC) in
the U.S.A. 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 conductors, location of
antenna discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes and
requirements for the grounding
electrode.

WARNING
If you are using an outdoor antenna,
please install it away from electrical
wires to make sure it does not
touch any nearby wires even when
it falls down due to heavy wind.
-
Failure to do so may cause
electric shock or physical injury.
CAUTION
To prevent any water flowing into
the product, install a drip loop in
the outdoor antenna wire where it
comes indoors.
-
Raindrops flowing into the
product may cause fire or
electric shock.
