| Don't forget satellite services My daughter just moved into a new house in the country and had Satellite TV installed. The antenna was not grounded and neither was the ground block. He had to put the antenna on one corner of the house for satellite visibility and just ran four RG-6 over 65 feet laying on the roof. They went down to an ungrounded ground block and then into the house. I looked over the neighbors install and one in five that I checked was grounded in any manner. This was a combination of DirecTV and Dish Network. Probably the same installer for both. My in-laws satellite antenna was grounded only at the ground block and it was an 18 gauge wire screwed to the side of the meter panel. Needless to say, I have fixed my daughters and my in-laws. |
