Two questions really:
- I have read that I can add a TV aerial amplifier to a lighting ring. Is this true? The lighting ring runs from B6 in the fuse box and the amplifier has a 3amp fuse at the moment. So would I be able to cut the plug off the amplifier and wire it into the lighting ring? Any problems with the 3amp fuse requirement in the amplifier vs the power in the lighting ring?
- Assuming the above is possible then it will have to go in the loft. There is a ceiling rose just next to the hatch (for the room below) with 2 wires coming out of it. One for the switch and one for the power. Am I right in thinking I can splice the power cable and add the amplifier here. I dont want the light switch to switch the amplifier off too.
Any other problems or issues you can forsee?
If it helps the electrics are brand new (persimmon house built in 2006)
