An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or
other electric light or power circuits, or where it

such power lines or circuits as contact with them
might be fatal.
15. OVERLOADING
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords
as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
