Stephen Aitch Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Good evening all, After (too many) hours of research, we have finally decided to bite the bullet and allow for power and cat 6 to each window for electric blinds. Does anyone have a view on where the spur fuse box should sit? Should this be up high by the blind, or adjacent to the socket that we are taking pwoer from? Views as always greatly appreciated.

TonyT Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Personally I would have the spur in the cupboard and take the cable straight into the blind control box to remove the visual clutter of the spur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Aitch Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 And also....any views on where we leave the power cables. Top of wall (is my current best guess)? corner of ceiling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tony. Longer runs I guess, but agree on the clutter. May change our electricians price though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyT Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I think you need to specify the blind, and refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for cable entry etc doing this will result in a cleaner install, rather than surface clipped flex/mini trunking etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
