13. Power-Cord Protection — Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely
to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the product.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to
the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of
the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge
unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV (Cable TV) system installer's attention to
article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,
specifi es that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as possible.
15. Lightning — For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is
left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to
lightning and power-line surges.
16. Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such
power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be
fatal.
17. Overloading — Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in risk of fi re or electric shock.
