As part of a project i have tried to make a futureproof scenario for running TV to the rooms around the house.

Basically I have fitted
webro 100 coax X 4 (2 shotgun) from dish position to loft,
webro coax x 2 (1 shotgun) from loft to each tv point in rooms 3 total
cat 5 from Bt incoming to loft
cat 5 from loft to each tv point
so in the loft I am about to mount a board upon which i can mount splitters boosters whatever is needed.
what i ask here is what power supply should I put into the loft I have every option available
1, from lighting circuit
2, from ring main
3, dedicated supply back to spare way in distribution board.

any advice on this gratefully recieved.
Thanks
Russell
 
I'd personally put in a couple of twin sockets from the socket circuit.

Also if it's not too late I'd look at running a couple more cat5 cables to each tv position to allow the distribution of HDTV signals as well as internet.
