Grounding Considerations
When installing the SNV-12, industry standard grounding practices should be practiced in
order to minimize chances of RF interference to audio and for lightning/surge protection. The
following minimum steps should be taken:
All equipment racks and/or cabinets should be properly grounded to a site ground system.
Equipment inside the racks or cabinets should be properly bonded to the rack/cabinet.
All wire line circuits (leased-line circuits, private circuits, etc.) should go through surge
protection prior to connection to the SNV-12. This device should meet or exceed the
specifications of a Polyphasor model IS-DPTL and should be connected to a site single-
point ground system.
AC Surge protection shall be provided by a device similar to and with specifications
meeting or exceeding Polyphasor model ISPLDO12015A. This device shall be connected
to a site single-point ground system.
If the voter is co-located with transmitter and receiver equipment at a communications
tower site, all transmission lines shall be protected by surge protectors similar to Polyphasor
coaxial protectors. These devices shall be connected to a site single-point ground system.
In addition, ground kits shall be properly installed on all feedlines.
Communications tower sites should have a properly designed perimeter grounding system,
including proper grounding of the communications shelter, tower structure, Telco and
electrical services and site fence. Communications shelters should have a properly installed
halo system.
The above steps cannot be guaranteed to prevent damage from lightning, but they will reduce
the chances of severe equipment damage and improve system reliability. Keep in mind that
most communications systems are more heavily utilized and relied upon during severe weather
conditions, especially public safety and public utility communications systems. It is important
that these systems be designed for high reliability during these conditions and proper grounding
and surge protection is essential.
