ANTENNAS
Outdoor antenna grounding
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow
the precautions below. An outdoor
antenna system should not be located
in the vicinity of overhead power lines
or other electric light or power circuits,
or where it can come in contact with
such power lines or circuits as death or
serious injury can occur.
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 Electrical
Code (NEC) in the U.S.A. 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 electrodes and requirements
for the grounding electrode.
Antenna grounding according to the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
