17. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended

international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties

of its cabinet design.

wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

19. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from

power lines.

20. 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.

• Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long time.

Example of Antenna Grounding

as per NEC - National Electric Code

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC
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.
