You can also mount the surge arrestor on the inside of the wall (see fig. 6).
Securely attach the surge arrestor by using the surface mounting bracket
attached to it. Place the surge arrestor as close as possible to where the
grounding rod will be grounded.

Form a rain drip loop in the coaxial cable at the point before it enters the
building (see figs. 3 and 6).
Notes:
• All exterior connections must be waterproof.
• Keep interior wire run to a minimum with coaxial cable because it is not fire
rated. All interior cable must be fire rated.

Run a #10 GA (or larger) bare copper wire to the ground terminal of the
surge arrestor, making it as short and as straight as possible. Connect it to
one of the rods of the three-rod grounding grid using a brass ground rod
clamp. If you have the MGP-1 grounding plate assembly, you can connect its
grounding screws to the ground wire on the existing MAXI three-rod
grounding grid. If not, use a brass ground rod clamp and attach it directly to
the ground rod.
13.
Connect the ground wire from the antenna to one of the rods of the three-
rod grounding grid. Attach it directly to the ground rod by using a brass
ground rod clamp.
For a MGP-1 grounding plate assembly, connect its grounding screws to the
ground wire on the existing MAXI three-rod grounding grid.
14.
Connect the other end of coaxial cable from the surge arrestor connection marked
“Equipment” and run it to the top (if the base unit is mounted on a wall) or the
back (if the base unit is sitting on a horizontal surface) of the base unit.
