ReadThere is no way to guantee that your satellite dish will not be damaged if lightning strikes your house with or without a lightning protection system. Most of the lightning s current will follow a properly designed and installed lightning protection system to ground. But due to the enormous power discharge in a bolt of lightning some will likely still discharge through your satellite dish and cabling. Good Luck.
maybe aluninum foil around it but if not go to a few stores and ansk them if they have lightning rods or get a copper pole and put it in the earth i wouldnt try my aluminum foil idea though thats just a guess
according to the NEC, all antanneas must be bonded to a ground rod with 6 solid copper wire minimum and must be bonded to the house grounding system. you will destroy expensive things unless you do your home work first on this one.
cover the fire detector. try taping a bowl or plastic tupperware to the roof over the fire detector
Is it alum, or plastic [resin] either one will not draw lighting, lighting is attracted to a spike of energy coming up from the ground, or tree, i wouldn't place it near the dish any way, put it on the peak as far away from the dish as possable, a copper rod 4 ft higher than the roof and dish will work, run a 6 copper wire to an 8ft ground rod, driven into the ground,
