Lightning Protection  
TELEVISION ANTENNA CONNECTION  
PROTECTION  
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when  
it is left unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug  
the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable  
system.  
If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be  
connected to the TV,make sure that the antenna or cable system  
is electrically grounded to provide some protection against  
voltage surges and static charges.  
Power Lines  
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits,  
or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember,  
the screen of the coaxial cable is intended to be connected to  
earth in the building installation.  
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70,  
provides information with regard to proper grounding of the  
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to  
an antenna discharge unit, size of the grounding conductors,  
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding  
electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.
