12 Grounding or Polarization
This product is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current 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 fea-
ture. 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 obso-
lete 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.
14 Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the prod-
uct, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded so as to pro-
vide 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, ground-
ing of the lead-in wire to an an-
tenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connec-
tion to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding
electrode.
15 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 dam-
age to the product due to light-
ning and power-line surges.
