16. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, 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, ANSI/ NFPA No.70-1984, 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. See figure 1.
