My niece's bungalow is being rewired by electricians.
While they're grooving the plaster
I may as well add some conduit for phone, internet and video.
I'm thinking of channels coming down from the roofspace,
Is there stuff I can use so we can poke down wires with the fittings
already attached,
so we can buy a standard phone extension lead and push it down or up?

but I guess that is just for bare wires without the plugs on the ends.

When the conduit's fitted, put all the cables you want /outside/ of it
and plaster over. Then you've got all your first batch of cables there
plus space for more as well later.
