Article 810 of the National Electrical Code covers the minimum grounding
requirements for towers and antennas. The current edition of the NEC,
known as NFPA 70, is the 2002 edition. If your tower is in an area that
warrants lightning protection, you should also consult NFPA 780, the
Lightning Protection Code.
The NEC covers grounding for safety of personnel, structures, and
equipment. It is almost always necessary to enhance the grounding
system with radials or additional ground rods to meet operational
requirements.
