2. Grounding kit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grounding_kit

   Grounding kits for different diameters Part of a tin-plated ripple. Grounding kits / Earthing kits are composed of two main components, a clamp and a cable. The clamp will be screwed on a coaxial cable and in case of lightning strokes in the antenna installation, the voltage will be diverted over a ripple in the clamp with the combined cable and will be earthed / grounded by this way.

3. Earthing system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

   The "local" Earth/Ground electrode provides "system grounding" [13] at each building where it is installed. The "Grounded" current carrying conductor is the system "neutral". Australian and New Zealand standards use a modified protective multiple earthing (PME [ 14 ] ) system called multiple earthed neutral (MEN).

4. Counterpoise (ground system) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterpoise_(ground_system)

   Counterpoises are typically used in antenna systems for radio transmitters where a good earth ground connection cannot be constructed.. Monopole antennas used at low frequencies, below 3 MHz, such as the mast radiator antennas used for AM broadcasting, require the radio transmitter to be electrically connected to the Earth under the antenna; this is called a ground (or earth).

5. Isolated ground - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated_ground

   The primary reason for the use of isolated grounds (IG) is to provide a noise-free ground return, separate from the equipment grounding (EG) return. The EG circuit includes all of the metal conduit, outlet boxes, and metal enclosures that contain the wiring and must be grounded to provide a safe return path in case of fault currents.

6. Television antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

   Outdoor antennas provide up to a 15 dB gain in signal strength and 15-20 dB greater rejection of ghost signals in analog TV. [6] Combined with a signal increase of 14 dB due to height and 11 dB due to lack of attenuating building walls, an outdoor antenna can result in a signal strength increase of up to 40 dB at the TV receiver. [6]

7. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

   For antennas near a half-wavelength high (180 electrical degrees [b]) the antenna has a voltage maximum near its base, which results in strong electric fields in the earth above the ground wires near the mast where the displacement current enters the ground. To reduce this loss these antennas often use a conductive copper ground screen under ...
