Hi All, this is my first time using this forum, apologies if this has been asked before. Please delete if so.
I am just installing a TV and devices with the cables to be buried into a brick wall, with some cables to come out a couple of feet below to the tv for sky/ virgin, etc, and then go behind the wall again to travel down to the basement (Ethernet, sky, etc). I would like to future-proof the set up in case I want to swap cables later.
What would be a good conduit/ pipe to bury into the walls to allow for cable swap-out later? First electrician originally recommended using 40mm flexi hose (fish pond hose type), but then I was told that the connectors would just get stuck on the internal grooves of this anyway. I have since considered using a solid 40mm grey soil pipe. Is there a better pipe to use?
For reference the pipe going up to the wall will probably contain 4/5 HDMIs and an optical to the soundbar, hence I was thinking the 40mm to accommodate these and their connectors.
Thanks in advance.
