W.T.K. Antenna on smart tv

[adnj]

So i got an outdoor roof antenna. Working pretty good at the ground level. I will mount it on the roof. While lightning strikes maybe rare i wont chance it. I will install a ground however is there any added protection i could put between tv and antenna ?

Congratulations on your new set up!

You should ground to earth both the mast and the cable according to the latest code.

A coax earthing block is used and the antenna cable is screwed onto one side with the TV cable screwed onto the other.

You may not get a lightning strike but you can certainly experience static buildup from the wind. The static charges can be a few thousand volts.
