Installation of satellite dish on the roof

Good full copper cables cost around €0.90 per meter, cheap cables with breakage- and intermodulation-prone aluminum shielding and possibly Staku conductors inside are about half that price.

Although it was actually clear that the price refers to one meter, an added self-quotation. BTW: The IEC 60728-11 is also adopted in Austria as ÖVE-ÖNORM.

it is nice that you know professionally how to write these things. However, for me this also means that even if this were my area of expertise, where I am professionally knowledgeable, I would also be able to explain it to people who are not so versed in this field. I assume you mean the same as I do, just much more expensive. Of course, my satellite dish is also grounded, as an electrician inspected and connected it. I assume your DIN standards 43527252726 are also being met. By the way, I have never been able to tell on my TV whether full copper cables or cheaper cables that enable my TV reception were installed. Oh yes, even the cheap satellite dish holds up against storm and hail. Should the LNB ever break, I will buy a new cheap one. In the end, as a retiree, I still will not have reached the prices of the expensive satellite systems... But that is something everyone must decide for themselves. I put more value on other things. I just wanted to inform the topic creator that it can also be done cheaper.

No one expects a cook to be knowledgeable about antenna and lightning protection technology. How would you react if well-intentioned but technically ignorant cooking amateurs spoke up, ignoring the most important cost factors and safety aspects and recommending only the poorest ingredients?

Shoemaker, stick to your last and cook with your pot.

Of course my satellite dish is grounded, an electrician certified and connected it.

I don’t know whether the perceived roughly 5% quota of norm-compliant antennas in Germany also applies to Carinthia. Nevertheless, I offer you a blind bet worth a crate of beer that the installation was not carried out according to ÖVE-EN 60728-11. With the uncritical trust in electricians’ work, you can easily earn (or lose?) the crate with detailed pictures of the grounding conductor connection on the antenna mast and the HES/PAS and the grounding blocks/grounding brackets.

I guess your DIN standards 43527252726 will also be met. By the way, I have never been able to tell on my TV whether full copper cables or cheaper cables are installed that enable my TV reception.

I suspect that the cited standards annoy you immensely, whether they apply only in Germany (DIN-EN/VDE) or are harmonized also in Carinthia, like ÖVE EN 60728-11. If that is the case: simply don’t read the sections.

Digitally, there are only two states: works or does not work. Since the shutdown of analog technology, the eye as a “measuring instrument” for system quality has become obsolete.

I just wanted to inform the topic creator that it can be done more cheaply.

Without norm-compliant grounding and PA, however, this was only one more non-compliant suggestion, which in Germany is called incitement to construction hazard.

See also ÖVE specialist information, partly outdated as of editorial status 2009-12.

To cut it short, I probably would have lost a crate of beer. Even in the hygiene and cooking area, I would always produce high-quality end products, even if someone provides inferior ingredients.

Basically, you are both right. The master described the variant "also works and is cheap," and Dipol the variant "works, technically correct, but more expensive due to better components." The correction of terminology by Dipol was, in my opinion, also sensible in order to provide the reader with the appropriate terms for the (construction) part search. Especially if this reveals a safer assembly variant. Which variant the interested reader ultimately decides on is up to him anyway, and based on the mentioned possibilities, including Dipol's notes on the regulations, he can weigh the pros and cons.

Thank you for your tips. I plan to do everything myself. I have also chosen (not yet purchased) the roof barrier holder, mast, dish with lnb and multiswitch. Installing the satellite would actually not be a problem. Now it’s about a special roof tile with gasket and lightning protection. Can I carry out the work after the construction phase of the bungalow or during the construction? How useful is the lightning protection? If necessary, can I also do it myself?
