Grounding or Polarization

If this product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug

having one blade wider than the other), it will fit into the outlet only one way. This is

a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing

the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your

obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

If this product is equipped with a three-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a

third (grounding) pin, it will only fit into a grounding type power outlet. This is a

safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your

electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

grounding type plug.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard

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.

See Figure 1.

Power Cord Protection –Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to

be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention

to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

Lightning –For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and

disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to

lightning and power-line surges.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding –If an outside

antenna or cable system is connected to the

product, be sure the antenna or cable system is

grounded so as to provide some protection

against voltage surges and built-up static

charges.
