oval conduit

[RyanCheetham]

Decided to add a high socket and aerial point for a wall mounted tv in my spare bedroom today and was not looking forward to chasing a cable to spur for my socket. Decided to chase my dual box out first and half way through there he was, oval conduit. So i move my box over, perform surgery on the conduit and use one leg of cable to pull a new one up and maintaining my RFC in the process. So thanks to a thoughtful spark who first wired the house it saved me a load of mess and making good. I will be using it from now on too!

Hope your not using the same conduit for power and aerial cable, there's a little something called induced voltage to consider

No i am not. I am fully aware of the seperation of mains and data cables. The coax runs down the other side of wall in a what used to be a riser for the old hot air system before the house had central heating fitted last year. I plan on using the riser to run all my network and dab cabling also so i am quite fortunate that it is there, as the cupboard makes a perfect housing the network switch and NAS

Ryan, you sound like quite the geek. A man after my own heart! I've just finished routing network, aerial and HDMI to each room.

i am very much a geek. I am currently choosing a stereo setup that runs through the switch and plays in each zone (each room) and all controllable with the tablet i have decided upon a sony wifi amp for living room with a tannoy surround sound setup
