to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away

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 Electric 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 connectors,
location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See
Figure below.

Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that

objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure
through openings.
