or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure
the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage surges
and buitt-up static charges. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Cede, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, pro-
vibes information with respect to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge
unit, size
