Hi SuzyQ! We do recommend grounding your antenna or mast during installation according to The National Electrical Code Article 810. Every state has different requirements and since we are based in St. Louis our local electrical codes for our location would be different from your location. We do not show grounding installation in our videos due to this reason. For grounding information, you can read our guide here https://www.antennasdirect.com/cmss_files/attachmentlibrary/pdf/Grounding-Info.pdf and then contact the NEC, a local licensed electrician, or a local electrical inspector for details in your local area. Thank you!
