international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its
cabinets design.

Do not compromise these design standards by applying excessive
pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet, which could ultimately
overturn the product.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding
– If an outside antenna is connected to
the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats and
supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-
discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna-
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for
the grounding electrode. See Figure below.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE
Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the
CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that
the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Please, make sure to connect the power plug to the wall outlet socket
after connecting the TV to the adapter!
