As an electrical safety manager, you really should use romex and not an extension cord to permanently wire that TV. It will probably be fine, but extension cords are not meant for permanent installations. The cord jacket gets brittle and cracks when they haven't been moved in some time. Creating a potential fire hazard. But like I said, it's probably fine for now, but if you're going to have that TV there for years, you should definitely change it out.

[@johngaltline9933]

How often does this "brittle jacket" come up? I can't say I've ever seen a regular orange cord have any issues from just sitting around. I've got cords that sat unuse3d for 20 years that I use regularly now... hell, I have one that I know wasn't touched, hanging on the wall in my grandparents basement since my dad moved out , hung there for 45 years and still is good as new. I have seen it on black, commercial grade cable meant for permanent instillation, when changing out hanging light fixtures, the jacket just crumbling apart on maybe 20 year old cable, but on an orange cord? never.

[@millergy]

And the port is upside down…

[@jjjacer]

IIRC for running power cables for code, if it is behind a wall it needs to be romex, if its going through conduit it usually needs to be non jacketed, so like THHN/THWN wire. That said you can do what you want, it should work as long as the amperage is not to high for the conductor size and distance, just note if their is a fire caused by it your insurance will probably not cover it, also if you sell the house you would want to remove it before inspection.

[@Puck90a]

Was thinking the same thing. I'm in the US, and I was wondering if Canada is different. But if anything, I'd assume Canada is more strict about stuff like this than the US is.

[@Forbes123]

yeah the violation of electrical code means that if this caused a fire, and insurance found out, then the claim would be denied.

[@Sir_Defyable]

I don’t know about building code where Linus lives, but if there are similarities to NEC 400.8, that extension cord likely isn’t rated to be used in-wall. The concern goes up as the voltage goes up and this is about as high of a voltage as you can get in a residential setting. Even the HDMI cable should be rated CL3 for in-wall use. Just FYI

[@ydoucare55]

Correct. Running extension codes through walls, ceilings, or floors, even in conduit, is against canadian electrical code.

[@jerri0401]

240v is high voltage? huh?

[@justjanne-de]

> The concern goes up as the voltage goes up and this is about as high of a voltage as you can get in a residential setting. Miele: The recommended way of connecting our stoves is with common residential 380V tri-phase connections. 🤔🤔🤔 The best way to do this would be to buy a separate, proper socket for both sides as well as plenum-rated cable for in the wall, then wire it up properly.
