Electrical Hazard Warnings
1. Antennas and cables are electrical conductors. Do not touch antennas, RoamAbout Lightning Protectors,
or antenna cables during a thunderstorm.
2. The location where you install each antenna must be at a safe distance from power lines or telephone
lines. The safe distance should be at least twice the height of the antenna mast plus the height of the
antenna.
3. The Contact between antenna components and power lines can result in serious personal injury, or
possibly death.
4. Do not install antennas or cables where there is any possibility of contact with high-voltage arc-over from
power cables or service drops to buildings.
5. During installation or removal, the antenna, supporting mast and/or tower must not be close to any power
lines.
6. The low-loss antenna cable that connects the antenna to the lightning protector must be at least 1 meter (3
feet) away from any high voltage or high current cable.
7. Check whether the antenna mast and its guy wires or wall bracket are positioned correctly and secured
properly to the roof or wall(s).
8. Check whether the grounding system for the antenna mast, the RoamAbout Access Point, and
RoamAbout Lightning Protector have been installed. The grounding system must comply with the
requirements as described in the “Verify Component Connector Polarity” section on page 3-2.
9. Always consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the antenna mast, Lightning
Protector, and/or RoamAbout Access Point is properly grounded.
10. The low-loss antenna cable between the antenna and the lightning protector must be grounded at all
times. If the cable is disconnected at one end for some reason (for example, to replace the lightning
protector), you must locally ground the exposed metal connector of the cable during the work.
11. Install the Danger label shipped with the antenna on a plainly visible area of the antenna support
structure.
