2.4 Grounding
Make sure that the installation of the outdoor unit, antenna and cables is performed in accordance
with all relevant national and local building and safety codes. Even where grounding is not
mandatory according to applicable regulation and national codes, it is highly recommended to
ensure that the outdoor unit and the antenna mast are grounded and suitable lightning protection
devices are used so as to provide protection against voltage surges and static charges. In any event,
Telrad is not liable for any injury, damage or regulation violations associated with or caused by
installation, grounding or lightning protection.
The Grounding screw is located on the lower part at the back of the unit (see Figure below). Use 10
AWG cable for grounding.
Connect one of a grounding cable to the grounding screw and firmly tighten the grounding screw.
Connect the opposite end of the grounding cable to a good ground (earth) connection.
