LIGHTNING PROTECTION
If installed outdoors, be sure the antenna
system is grounded so as to provide
protection against voltage surges and built-
up static charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA70, or CSA C22.1
sections 10, 16, and 54, of the Canadian
Electrical Code, provide information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast
and supporting structure, grounding of the
antenna 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 (see gure and
instructions).
Mount the lightning arrestor or 75 ohm
coaxial grounding block as close as possible
to where the 75 ohm coaxial cable down
lead enters the house.
The ground wires for both the mast and the
down lead should be copper or aluminium
wire, number eight (8) or larger.
The down lead wire from the antenna to
the lightning arrestor and the mast ground
wire should be secured to the house, spaced
from four (4) to six (6) feet apart.
In the case of a “ground up” antenna
installation it may not be necessary to
ground the mast if the mast extends four
or more feet in the earth. Consult a TV
serviceman for the proper depth in your
location.
WARNINGS
To prevent re or shock hazard, do not
expose the included power supply to rain or
moisture.
Installation of o-air antennas near power
lines is dangerous. For your safety, follow
the installation instructions.
Any alteration or modication to the
product or usage not in accordance with
product instructions voids the warranty.
