[TowerTalk] Grounding, Lightning & corona discharge

[j4976 at juno.com]

A question on the lightning issue:

Does anyone know if there is any benefit to routing the cabling from
tower to house underground using a direct bury grade of cable?  I thought
it might encourage discharge into the ground or toward the water table
prior to entry considering that to a lightning bolt, the insulation on
the cable would be a joke.

- Thanks.
