Grounding the ODUspe
NOTE:
The ODUspe includes an internal lightning surge suppressor.
ODU Grounding Procedure
To ground the ODU:
1. Locate the green 2 m ground wire in the ODU installation Kit. One end is fitted with
a crimp lug, the other is free.
2. Fasten the lugged end of ground wire to the ODU grounding stud. Before
tightening, ensure the cable is correctly aligned towards the tower.
NOTE:
The ODU grounding stud is also used to ground the ODU cable - the
ODU cable is terminated with a connector and a lugged cable
ground.
3. Locate a position on a tower member for the ground clamp. This must be as close
as practical below the ODU for downward-angled positioning of the ground wire.
NOTE:
Run the ground wire down from the ODU to its ground point using
the shortest practical path. Do not loop or spiral the ground wire.
4. Scrape any paint or oxidation from the tower at the clamping point to ensure there
will be good low-resistance contact.
5. Cut the ground wire so there will be a just a little slack in the wire when it is
connected to the ground clamp. A ground clamp is supplied as part of the ODU
Cable Installation kit.
6. Strip the insulation back by 25 mm (1 inch), fit into ground clamp, and firmly
secure the clamp to tower.
7. Liberally apply conductive grease/paste around the ground clamp to provide
corrosion resistance. Also apply to the ODU ground stud.
