[QUOTE="steptoe, post: 20697, member: 7"] inducted currents. or if the insulation were to break down it would go live, your protective device wont kick in/out untill the current leaks to earth, by that time your sat box etc may be fried, or you too.!! remember your sat cable already has 18v or so on it, your data and phone is also carrying some DC as well. interference is an issue as well, esp so as not to cause a nuisance to other services, but thats not really a problem as regards the safety of the installation.
