Hi,

I'm running some coax cable for my tv alongside cable running to sockets. Will this interfere with the tv signal at all?

thanks,
J

It shouldn't as long at the outer core of the co ax cable is properly connected at each end to form the shield properly.

If the cable you're using is well screened (I recommend CT100 or equivalent), you shouldn't have a problem.
