100W s can mount below the pit lid on a customer-supplied 1/2-inch OD rod. The example
installation described in this section uses a fiberglass rod. For more information, see the

Warning The rod installation area must be free from other pipes, wires, or
facilities that may be damaged by driving a rod into the ground.
Caution You must follow local codes when using the rod mount installation method.
Failure to use 1/2-inch rod and follow instructions may result in an unreliable installation.
Caution Observe the following guidelines for mounting the 100W using the
wall mount procedure:
Endpoint positioning other than upright could negatively affect
radio performance and battery life.
Do not use gel connectors in pit environments.
Use only Itron-approved splice kits or inline connectors.
