Greetings!
Getting ready to mount a TV over my fireplace. Here is what I'm working with:
-First floor family room
-On slab
-Windows on either side of fireplace
SO, what I'm proposing to do is pull power from an outlet under the right window via conduit running outside of the house back into the fireplace bump-out.
For the three HDMI cables, I was planning to run those from the left side of the fireplace (cable outlet is on that side) also outside under the vinyl siding and back in.
The reason for running the power and HDMI cables outside and back in is because between the sources and the TV are at least five studs.
QUESTION 1: is the HDMI under vinyl siding OK and if so will bends affect the cable?
QUESTION 2: what kind of electrical cable should I use inside of the conduit? I was just going to use Romex but doing some research yields more questions than answers.
Thanks!
