Unless all of your grounds are bonded together - You stand the risk of causing your own nightmares due to the difference in potential across the 2 different grounding systems. Make sure everything is bonded together as 1 single grounding system.

Subject: [WISPA] Grounding questions/help


I have several towers, all of which except for 1 never have any issues, however, this 1 tower (we are the only tenant) seems to have a problem each year during
lightning season...

Last night it took a hit, although it appears it came through the electrical and not the tower, but I’m not sure, the UPS was off, I reset it and it came back
online --- but the POE injector did NOT, it was completely shot.

Replaced the POE unit and the wireless gear came online, but started rebooting after about 15minutes (although it didn't this before, I just changed the POE from a 12v to 15v) tried a 24v POE, and the radio was still rebooting... Called
the tower climber..

Anyways I looked over the ground and the tower appears to 3 ground rod off each
tower leg and then the building has a separate ground rod - (unless its
connected underground)

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Dan
