Thanks
So it looks like I have made a mistake then -Trouble is I think I'll have to carry on using the cat 6 for now as I robbed out the cat 5 for another job and the routing of the cable is a nightmare!
So being a bit slow
what your'e all saying roughly is If I carry on using the cat 6 I should either use 1 single wire or 2 in the same pair?
I didn't understand about the earth shielding - are you saying that the silver screening should be earthed? I never knew that!
what an idiot
Taking into account that I have ballsed up and re-wiring will be a terrible PITA could you advise me what to do.
use 1pair yes?
earth the shielding ? you mention different ring mains but It could only be earthed at one end anyway as the other end is in the loft.
I'm sorry I just don't understand that bit, is there a terminal in the master socket for earth? I didn't notice one
Or have I totally misunderstood what you said.
Thanks for your help it looks like I need it
Mike
