Routing the Cables
Step 6
Connect the bridge ground lug to the tower (metal-to-metal) using 6 AWG copper wire. Use a crimping
tool to crimp the ground lug to the wire.

Caution
To ensure correct installation and grounding, install the bridge in compliance with your local and
national electrical codes: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70, National Electrical Code
(U.S.); Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA 22.1 (Canada); and if local or national electrical codes are
not available, refer to IEC 364, Part I through Part 7 (other countries).

Step 7
Apply a thin layer of electrical joint compound to the bridge at the ground lug location (See
).
Step 8
Attach the ground lug to the bridge (see
) using two Phillips-head screws. Torque the screws to
10 to 12 in. lb.
Step 9
Ensure the tower is attached to a proper grounding system.
Routing the Cables
Cables to the Building Grounding Block
This procedure explains how to route the cables from the power injector to the building grounding block.
The grounding block should be installed at the building entry point and connected to the building’s
ground system and every 100 ft (30 m) for long outside cable runs.
The grounding block should be installed at the building entry point and connected to the building’s
ground system and every 100 ft (30 m) for long outside cable runs.
To route and connect cables, follow these steps:
Step 1
Unroll two 75-ohm cables the full length from the power injector to the building grounding block, laying
them out straight without kinks.
them out straight without kinks.
Step 2
For unassembled cables, cut and install F-connectors on the ends of each cable.
Step 3
Connect the cables to the power injector.
Step 4
Secure the cables along the path from the power injector to the grounding block using UV-stabilized
Ty-Wraps or equivalent fasteners.

Step 5
Form cable service loops and connect the cables to the grounding block.
Step 6
Find the building's grounding electrode system and then connect the grounding block to the building's
grounding electrode system using 14 AWG copper wire or larger.
