Sky+ socket anywhere?
Had sky+ installed last week. I ran the two cables inside the walls/under
the floors whilst the extension was being built earlier this year, and left a single drywall box in the wall with the two cables sticking out of it. According to the Sky installer, the cover plate/socket - two screw-type fittings on a single plate - are readily available. Despite searching anywhere (all the sheds/Screwfix/ToolsStation/TLC/City Elctrical Factors/etc) no one has ever heard of them. Any idea whether they actually exist/where can I find one? |

You didn't search Toolstation very well then... http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Elec...te/d190/sd3084 item code 13270. -- Andy |
