External Television Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to the TV, make sure that the
antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges
and static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 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 the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.
Lightning Protection
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended or unused for
long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
Power Lines
Do not mount the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such
power lines or circuits.
