If an outside antenna is connected to the TV receiver, be sure the antenna
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built up static charges. In the U.S. Section 810-21 of the National
Electrical Code and in Canada, Part 1 of the Canadian Electrical Code
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the antenna
system. See the fi gure on the right for details.
