Protection requirements for a wall installation
If the AP or SM is to be mounted on the wall of a building, then in addition to the general protection requirements
(above), the following requirements must be observed:
The equipment must be lower than the top of the building or its lightning air terminal.
The building must be correctly grounded.
Schematic examples of wall installations are shown in Figure 19.
