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 the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements of the grounding
electrode.
Lightning Protection
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
Power Lines
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or
where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember, the
