Discuss Odd issue with TV turning OFF when another device is turned ON. in the Lighting Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
I like your thinking but sadly no. Have a couple lying around though, no harm in wrapping the cable round them is there..?This may be a bit of a red herring but did the television come with a ferrite bead for it's power cable? If so, have you used it?
A systematic approach will be needed to find if a) TV is over sensitive (try another)
b) interconnected equipment is funneling in interference.
c) TV temporarily confused starts selecting another source if more than 1 present!
Start with bare minimum HDMI's connected Just ONE = Blue ray player , no amplifiers or sound systems...gradually re-building system with more parts. See if interference stays away until a certain component is added!
Great question, to which the answer is ..... No idea.....(Any figure of 8 mains cables)
Done.(Also leave satellite system -disconected at some point)
I totally forgot about this thread. So pleased you identified it. Isn't electric weird.Just wanted to come back agin to thank everyone for their suggestions. Having gone through the entire house and checked tightened every screw I a happy to report that I think I found the offending thing. Well, in the Consumer unit the Neutral feed from the meter was loose, it took way more turns than it should have, didn't see any signs of arcing, not sure if I would or not but anyway there was none.
Found 3 or 4 really grotty looking connections i an upstairs room and even a live cable just hanging in the wall cavity space. Not terminated or anything, looked like it used to feed an Expelaire which had been removed and the wires just left hanging...Hmmm, not clever.
So, over 2 week now and the TV is behaving.
Thanks
