25. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide
some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA NO.70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grouding 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 electrodes. (See Diagram Figure A.)
24. To reduce the risk of electric shock, the grounding of center pin of plug must be maintained.
