AMD Phreak Premium join:2003-12-14	For EMT ? What size of EMT are you wanting to run? Do you want it stubbed into a conduit box or do you just want a weatherhead? Do you buy from Graybar?

VariableARK join:2003-03-17 USA	I could get it from Graybar, but I would prefer lowes/home depot as we are trying to get this work done atm. I need to run 6 runs of the copper shielded flooded superior essex and 1 run of lmr400 and probably ground wire. So I was thinking 1.5" or 2".

The screw down type certainly is not water tight. Compression couplers ARE raintight. Thomas & Betts and Steel City are most widely available. I would suggest that you use EMT if permanence is required. Paint it -before- you put it up...far easier! -- A is A

The screw down type certainly is not water tight. For that application you want steel not cast zinc compression connectors and depending on the length of the run you may need to allow a gap in the run or use an expansion coupler or two.

VariableARK join:2003-03-17 USA	I am putting my equipment box at the base of the tower. Should I bond the equipment on the top to the electrical ground or should I put a new grounding rod in?

VariableARK join:2003-03-17 USA	Does that mean I should put a new ground in AND connect that ground to the common electrical system ground as well?

VariableARK join:2003-03-17 USA	Does this sounds like an apt description of what needs to be done? "Ground the antenna cables on the top to a common ground wire that runs down to the main box where the ethernet cables are ground and that ground is bonded to the electrical ground as well as it has its own ground rod."
