12. Grounding or Polarization - This product may be equipped
with
a polarized
alternating-eurrent line plug
(a
plug having one blade
wider
than
the
other).
This plug will fit into the
power
outlet
only one way. This is a safety feature.
If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,
try
reversing
the
plug. If
the plug should still fail
to
fit, contact your electrician
to
replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of
the polarized plug.
13. Power-Cord Protection - Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on
or
pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention
to
cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point
where
they exit from the product.
15.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If
an
outside antenna or cable
system
is
connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded
so
as
to
provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810
of
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides
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
grounding conductors, location
of
antenna-discharge unit, connection
to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See
Figure
A.
16.
Lightning -
For
added protection for this product 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 or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the product due
to
lightning and power-line surges.
17
Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity
of
overhead power lines or other electric light
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.
