16 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. Antenna grounding according to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70 For USA NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820 - 40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry as practical.

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.

NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the
CATV system installer’s attention
to Article 820 - 40 of the National
Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides
guidelines for proper grounding and,
in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building, as
close to the point of the cable entry as
practical.
