Default distance between tv aerial and mains socket?

Is there a recommended distance to keep between a tv aerial socket and
a mains socket? I'm thinking if they are too close would the aerial
pick up interference? I had a quick flick through the OSG but all I
coul;d find was something about keeping telephone lines 50mm away from
mains cables, which IMO seemed a very small separation but entirely
irrelevant to my original question! TIA, Stephen.


As I understand it the OSG is about safety, not interference. If you
follow the rules in there you are not guaranteed an interference-free
life, but you are less likely to get 240v down your lughole when aunty
Maureen gives you a tinkle.
