TV Wall Mounting Provisions: How do they work?

Intelligent Home offers TV wall mounting provisions during construction to allow for clean, professional TV installations without visible cables running down the wall.

What Is Installed During Construction?

In most cases, two concealed pathways are installed inside the wall:

1. 25mm Electrical Conduit

This conduit is dedicated to power. It allows the TV’s power cable to run safely down the wall to a GPO (General Power Outlet), typically positioned approximately 300mm above floor level.

2. 25x50mm Cable Duct

This larger duct is used for low-voltage cables such as:

  • HDMI cables

  • Data/network cables

  • TV antenna cables

  • USB extension cables

Both the conduit and duct are chased into the wall cavity and terminated into wall boxes. At the final stage of construction, they are covered with blank plates, ready for handover.


How Do You Use It When Installing Your TV?

When you are ready to mount your TV:

  1. Drill a 25mm hole into each blank plate (power and data).

  2. Feed the required cables down through the ducting.

  3. Connect them to your devices at the bottom outlet location.

We typically recommend using 3-metre cables to allow sufficient length for easy connection to devices such as AV receivers, gaming consoles, or streaming equipment.


Why Install TV Wall Provisions?

  • No visible cables

  • Cleaner, professional finish

  • Easier future upgrades

  • Protects cables inside the wall

  • Saves time during TV installation
