I just got my new glory star satellite system and am trying to get it all set up. I am quite a novice in this area, so i need help with grounding my satellite. Can someone provide me with step-by-step directions on how to ground the system. I know what to do with the grounding block, but i don't know what to do after that.
Any help would be awesome,
Steve

It is best to install the dish near the utilities service entrance for the home.



Identify the grounding rod that is connected to the electrical panel, telephone and/or cable services.
Scrape the grounding rod to expose bare metal then attach the grounding strap.
Attach the grounding wire from the grounding block to the strap. If you require a longer ground wire, it is available at a home supplies store. Keep the ground wire as short as possible.


You might also consider attaching a ground wire from the dish mount to the grounding block. If you are unsure how to safely and properly ground your system, consult with a local electrician for assistance in meeting local electrical codes.
