Safety Warnings
16. An outside antenna system should not
be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light 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 eliminate touching
power lines or circuits as contact might
be fatal.
17. Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in a risk of
fire or electric shock.
18. Never push objects of any kind into this
product through openings as they may
touch short-out parts or dangerous
voltage points that could result in a fire
or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any
kind on the product.
19. If an outside antenna is connected to
the television equipment, be sure the
antenna system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage
surges and built up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code 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 electrodes.
