UL Information - The equipment must be properly grounded according with NEC and other local safety code requirements. - Reminder to all the BWA system installers: Attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall
Air4G-W24 Installation Guide Page 11 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00181 Rev G be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as is practical. Lightning Protection WARNING: The following notes are general recommendations for the system. The wireless equipment should be installed by a qualified professional installer and must follow local and national codes for electrical grounding and safety. Failure to meet safety requirements and/or use of non-standard practices and procedures could result in personal injury and damage to equipment. A direct lightning strike may cause serious damage even if these guidelines are followed. All outdoor wireless equipment is susceptible to lightning damage from a direct hit or induced current from a near strike. Lightning protection and grounding practices in local and national electrical codes serve to minimize equipment damage, service outages, and serious injury. Reasons for lightning damage are summarized as: - Poorly grounded tower/antenna sites that can conduct high lightning strike energy into equipment. - Lack of properly installed lightning protection equipment that can cause equipment failures from lightning induced currents. A lighting protection system provides a means by which the energy may enter earth without passing through and damaging parts of a structure. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of energy to travel safely to ground. Improperly grounded connections are also a source of noise that can cause sensitive equipment to malfunction. A good tower grounding system disperses most of the surge energy from a tower strike away from the building and equipment. To limit the equipment damage due to a lightning strike, the following practices are recommended for the wireless system: - Provide direct grounding from the antenna mounting bracket, the radio and antenna and the lightning arrestors to the same ground point at the base of the tower or a ground bus on the building. Use the grounding screws on the antenna bracket and the radio and antenna for terminating the ground wires. - The AC wall outlet ground must be connected to the same grounding system as the BS.
