IMPORTANT INFORMATION
WARNINGS:
TO REDUCE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THE DEVICE TO WET
LOCATIONS.
CAUTION! RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK - DO NOT
OPEN
SAFEGUARDS:
1. If an outside antenna is connected to the equipment, 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 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 the grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connections to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. Please see figure below.
2. For added protection for this electronic equipment during a lighting storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long period of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the device due to lightning and power-line surges.
3. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
“Note to CATV systems installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installers’ attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.”
