I have downloaded and am working my way trough a lot of tech notes on
lightning protection furnished for free by Polyphaser. (Got the link
here on TT) I will also read TIA-222-G and then I will do what seems to
make sense and to be in the spirit of these documents if not exactly to
the letter of any source of guidance.
I am not subject to permit or inspection, mechanical or electrical, and
not under Government regulation until or unless I put up something tall
enough to fall under FAA interest/regulation. (not likely as I am over
20 miles to an airport.)
I appreciate all the responses I have received but find the supplied
guidance to conflict (was that a surprise?) so will try for the most
protection for the buck as guided by the above written materials and
other trusted sources.
I won't give you advice on what to do but I will share with you what the
TIA-222-G code says about grounding. Generally TIA-222-G is the governing
code, not NEC.*
Thanks again to all who replied. Patrick NJ5G
