Take precautions against electrostatic discharge when handling antenna.
Grounding
The FDAP provides internal and external grounding points to meet various local and
regulatory grounding requirements. Ensure that the FDAP is grounded properly by a
certified and authorized personnel, and that it conforms to all applicable codes and
regulations. The materials required to provide a proper grounding is defined by local
regulations and should be obtained locally to ensure that the correct safety environment is
achieved.
1. The recommended wire gauge of the ground cable from FDAP
ground to the ground pit should be at least 12AWG or better.
2. Ground pit should be maintained as per the NEC recommendation.
The ground resistance should be less than 5 ohms so that it
provides safety to FDAP under environmental transients such as
lightning, sandstorm, and so on.
