IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

15. If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment,
be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built up static charges.
In the U.S. Selection 810-21 of the National Electrical Code pro-
vides information with respect 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 electrodes.
16. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicini-
ty of overhead power lines or other electrical 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 cir-
cuits as contact with them might be fatal.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING ACCORDING
TO NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA 70
"Note to 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 build-
ing, as close to the point of cable entry as practical."
17. Wall or Ceiling Mounting—The product should be mounted to
a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
18. Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no
objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on it.
