Setting the ground wire of railway communication tower

Home / Setting the ground wire of railway communication tower

1/0 AWG minimum insulated copper wire may be used as an independent ground wire to the tower ground, but is not generally a recommended practice, especially on tall towers. All coaxial cables, waveguides, and antennas should be bonded to the tower near the antenna base. We have assembled some of the most prominent practices commonly used on radio tower grounding systems to ensure the effective operation of installed lightning protection systems. Footing Resistance: Measuring the footing resistance ensures it is below 10 ohms, crucial for tower safety. If the tower is constructed of any type of metallic material it is required by the NEC.
