PROTECTION AND LOCATION OF YOUR SET
16-1 If an outside antenna is connected to the television set, be sure the
antenna system is protected against voltage surges and built up static
charges, Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70-1975,
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 electrode, and requirements for the grounding
electrode.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING
16-2 Note to CATV system installer: (Only for the television set with CATV

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 television set during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from
