16-2. Note to CATV system installer.
(Only for the TV/VCR Combination with CATV reception)
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-
40 of the NEC that 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 cable entry as practical.
17. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electrical lights 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 keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with
them might be fatal.
18. For added protection for this TV/VCR Combination during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage due to lightning and
power-line surges.
