				  one or more antennas. Where the communication tower is affixed to another
				  structure, such as an electrical transmission tower, church steeple, building
				  rooftop, or water tower, the applicable part of any controlling regulation for
				  protection of employees (e.g.,

				  blast.
(n) When firing with
				  blasting machines, the connections shall be made as recommended by the
				  manufacturer of the electric detonators used.
(o) The number of electric detonators
				  connected to a blasting machine shall not be in excess of its rated capacity. A
