system
should
not
be
located
in
the
vicinity
of
overhead
power
lines
or
other
electric
light
or
power
circuits,
or
where
it
can
come
in
contact
with
such
power
lines
or
circuits.
WHEN
INSTALLING
AN
OUTDOOR
ANTENNA
SYSTEM, EXTREME
CARE
SHOULD
BE
TAKEN
TO
KEEP FROM
CONTACTING
SUCH
POWER
LINES
OR
CIRCUITS AS
CONT
ACT
WITH
THEM
IS
ALMOST
INVARIABLY FATAL.
Be
sure
the
antenna
system
is
grounded
so
as
to
provide
some
protection
against
voltage
surges
and
built-up
static charges. Section 810
of
the
National
Electrical
Code
provides
information
with
respect
to
proper
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.
