Exterior Antenna or Lightning Surge Arrester Protector Ground Wire and Grounding Kit for protecting home / building from lightning surge. Comparable to zBoost YX012 grounding kit.

Kit Includes:

• 20 feet roll of 12-18 American Wire Gauge (AWG) Ground Wire.
• Ground Clamp for cold water pipes.

This purchase is for an antenna system grounding kit that comes complete with pipe clamp, ground cable, and ground wire. It can be used with antenna systems that are omnidirectional as well as outside systems that are yagi directional.

It is perfectly suited in any public safety, office, or home environment, including M2M ATM and vending machines.

Suggested applications include Wi-Fi Systems, 3G, 4G, LTE WiMax, cellular, and other antenna systems that are omni-directional, as well as outside antennae systems that are yagi unidirectional.

The ground wire connects to lightning surge protector if installed, or exterior antenna's cable connector metal portion and other end connects to the clamp which in turn clamps on to metal water pipe or similar metallic grounded object visible outside the home. This redirects lightning surge to shortest distance to ground to prevent damage to cell signal booster system connected to exterior antenna. It does require professional installation so those that know how to ground exterior antennas, already know how to install this product.

Note: Lightning Surge Arrester or Protector NOT included with this purchase.

Important Notice Regarding Grounding Requirements.

The team at SignalBooster.com would like to take this opportunity to remind all our valued customers - particularly those residing in the United States, that the National Electric Code mandates that all coaxial cables and antenna masts that enter a building from the outside must be grounded. It is only by utilizing proper grounding techniques with approved protectors that we can work together to prevent building fires, safeguarding our valuable equipment and even more valuable human lives.

Regardless of where in the world you live, proper grounding protection measures should always be undertaken when installing any type of antenna or other equipment from outdoors into a building. This ensures that people and property are protected against electrical surges caused by lightning strikes or any other reason. As an added benefit, precautions that you take to protect your equipment against electrical surges can also provide similar levels of protection to wireless equipment against the build-up of static electricity.

The team at SignalBooster.com highly recommends all customers engage the services of professional installers if necessary, and follow all local electrical laws and codes, regardless of where you live.
