Default Running co-ax


"soup" wrote in message

I was fairly careful when I was running the co-ax down various 'holes' not to touch
pipework, I am worried though that the cable may move and touch the pipework .
Will the co-ax cope with touching domestic hot water pipes or will this heat load cause
the cable insulation to degrade or off-gas?


Is what you mean ttat the coax may touch the pipes when going through the holes ?

Could you not sheath the co-ax with a couple of turnings of heat resistant
tape at those points ? You'd need to slacken it off from end or one or other
apply the tape and pulll it back through I'd imagine,
