SECTION 2.4: CONNECTING TO STATION REFERENCE
GROUND
To connect to the station reference ground, perform the following steps:
1. Locate the safety ground stud assembly (E1) for the transmitter at the bottom rear of the cabinet
(see Figure 2.4.1 on page 4-2).
2. Attach a continuous, low impedance conductor (minimum four-inch copper strap) between the
station reference ground and the stud assembly (E1) on the cabinet. Secure the conductor to E1
using the stud’s 3/8-inch nut and a suitable wrench. Ensure the reference ground conductor is at
least 3 mm (1/8 in) from the cabinet’s exterior.
3. For information about grounding the lightning protection, see the NV10LT/NV7.5LT Pre-Installation
Manual. For detailed information about lightning protection, see the Nautel Site Preparation
Manual, available from your Nautel sales agent, or online from the Nautel website.
4. Firmly tighten all hardware. Do not re-install the rear panels at this time.
CAUTION! IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE CONDUCTOR ATTACHED TO E1 DOES NOT
CONTACT THE TRANSMITTER CHASSIS AT ANY OTHER POINT.
