I first fixed my sunroom yesterday and i ran the coaxial for sky digital through the same conduit as 2.5 twin & earth for the sockets. Will this cause interferance in the sattelite reception or do the cables have enough insulation to work ok ?

should be fine,, but isnt ideal

depends what type of co-ax u used. If it ain't sheilded then youll get interference i expect.

Its coper core with white insulation outside that, then steel braiding and black insulation on the outside. Not sure of the name of it.

i think the steel is the shield but i could be wrong. I just gets in the way of anything thats comes off the cable.

As long as your using satellite co-ax. Cant remember its RG number.
It is sheilded so to be honest you should be ok.

All confused now. My M8 who's a sparks tells me i could get digital freezing in the picture because of it. i think i'll just pull it all out to be on the safe side.
