PROTECTION AND LOCATION OF YOUR SET
16-1 If an outside antenna is connected to the television set, be sure the antenna system is protected against
voltage surges and built up static charges, Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70-1975,
provides 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 electrode, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

16-2 Note to CATV system installer: (Only for television with CATV reception) 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 building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
17 An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electrical lights 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.
18 For added protection for the television 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. This will prevent
damage due to lightning and power-line surges.
