TV Antenna Connectors Protection 
External Television Antenna Grounding 
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the 
product, be sure the antenna or cable system is electrically 
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 electrical grounding 
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of 
the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of 
grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, 
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for 
the grounding electrode. 
Lightning Protection 
For added protection of any Compaq product during a 
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused 
for long periods of time, unplug the product from the wall 
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This 
will prevent damage to the product from lightning and 
power line surges.
