·     Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or electric light or power circuits, or where they can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
