Hi I've tried to search on google to find out how to connect a grid type coax tv cable. Never done one before although plenty of standard TV outlet plates. I thought it would be straight forward like I've done before. At the back 2 x small screws removed to gain access by lifting lid.
I can see terminal screw in the centre. Surrounding the screw is a square type metal fitting with jaw type teeth. Somehow the Coax mesh must connect to it. No doubt it is very simple to do. Thought i'd find something on you tube.
 
Presume they look like below? If so, as Dave says. Can be a little fiddly and don't tighten the centre screw too tight (the cheap ones tend to snap the cable easily!).
