If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the High Definition LCD TV, be sure the 
antenna or cable system is grounded to prevent voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 
810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70, provides information on proper grounding of 
the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, 
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. 

 

For added protection for the High Definition LCD TV 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 High Definition LCD TV due to lightning 
and power-line surges. Do not disconnect the antenna or the power cord during a heavy storm – 
lightning may strike while you are holding the cable cord, causing serious injury. Turn off your High 
Definition LCD TV and wait for the weather to improve. 

 

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other 
electric light or power circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be 
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits.
