passing cables behind a fireplace

Why? do you hang pictures there? No, but my mice do.... It's against the regs. Which specify running vertically or horizontally from a fitting, or within 150mm of the corners or the ceiling - unless 50mm deep or protected by metal conduit etc. Just cat5, phone and speaker cable. |
