3.  Lead the grounding cable of the feeder lightning grounding 

clip to the ground grid. No reverse direction is allowed. The 
angle formed by the grounding cable and the main feeder 
must not be more than 15°. No reverse folding is allowed.  

„ 

In the case that the antenna feeder system is installed on 
the tower, the grounding cable of the grounding clip must 
be led downward along the tower body.  

„ 

In the case that the antenna feeder system is installed on 
the roof, the grounding cable of the grounding clip must 
be led close to the building lightning protection grid.  

4.  Before installing the grounding clip, wrap the grounding wire 

at the grounding clip end that is close to the grounding cable 
sheet copper with the waterproof adhesive tape, as shown in 
Figure  47. This can improve the sealing effect and prevent 
the rain from falling into the feeder interior along the 
grounding cable.
