Speaking of fuses, I know sometimes we get overcurrent trips on CTMs and SyncInjectors and have to reset them. Very rare, but always during storms. It is possible this is saving radios, I can't say for sure.

One thing we've been doing for several years now is a bonding wire up
the tower. I do not trust the tower steel/leg joints being low enough
resistance. Failure rate went way down. DC and fuses doesn't hurt either.

So we are loosing radios left and right due to lightning!

Typical site setup:

Radios on tower grounded to tower

Shielded cable

Shielded patch panel - grounded

Regular cat5 jumpers

Wbmfg SS - grounded

Regular cat5 jumpers

Poe device

What's wrong?
