hi, i got to install some tv sockets on ground floor and run the cable into the loft.
thats 2 floors up around 5 meters. can the coax cable share space in conduit with
feed for lighting on 1st floor? i mean if tv reception will not be affected?

another question- do you have any experience with those unpowered splitters?

my answers in red. just do it right.
 
Be careful you do not end up with multiple powered amps in series you will get a rotten signal.
If you split multiply from a dist amp then you will have a powerful enough signal to each point. If you need to split after this then you should be OK with passive splitters but they will degrade the signal.
 
how can you degrade crap like emmerdale, dallas and eastenders? you can't get any worse.
 
Suppose there's worse... Big blubber, i'm an unheard of has-been celebrity, celeb mr&mrs.
