Section 7.  Installation 
 
 
Note Lightning strikes may damage or destroy the CR800 and 
associated sensors and power supplies. 
In addition to protections discussed in , use of a simple lightning rod and low-
resistance path to earth ground is adequate protection in many installations.    .

7.3.2  Single-Ended Measurement Reference 
Low-level, single-ended voltage measurements (<200 mV) are sensitive to ground 
potential fluctuation due to changing return currents from 12V, SW12, 5V, and 
C1 – C4 terminals.    The CR800 grounding scheme is designed to minimize these
