NEC (National Electrical

Code) Standards

A Note for the Cable Television (CATV) Installer

This reminder is 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.

Antenna Grounding Outside the House

If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the
antenna 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 lead-
in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode. See diagram below.

BEFORE the point of entry into
