Note to the CATV system installer: 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.

(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
or grounding-type plug.A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other.A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong.The wide blade or third prong are provided

17.Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with
recommended international global safety standards
for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design.
• Do not compromise these design standards by
applying excessive pull force to the front,or top,of
the cabinet which could ultimately overturn the
product.
• Also,do not endanger yourself,or children,by plac-

19.Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be
located away from power lines.
20. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside
antenna is connected to the receiver,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 Electric Code,
ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984,provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and sup-
porting structure,grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit,size of grounding connec-
tors,location of antenna-discharge unit,connection
to grounding electrodes,and requirements for the
grounding electrode.See Figure below.
21.Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken
so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled
into the enclosure through openings.
