Hey guys, Im in the process of moving to a new place. The wall where I want to mount TV doesnt have any power socket, but there is indoor A/C unit just next to it. Can I just connect a power strip cable to A/C unit terminals and use it as a socket for my LCD TV? Is there any risk Im not aware of?

I live in EU and have 220V AC mains. AC is ~1kW indoor unit and also ~1kW outdoor unit. TV is just regular 43" LCD.

I have a general knowledge about electricity (high school), but have no experience with A/C units.

Cheers

    Thx. Yeah i think its called terminal of the aircorn (I just googled that word, wasnt familiar). Its just regular screw terminal where you connect outdoor and indoor unit (located inside of indoor unit).

    Is that really an issue since TV doesnt drain more than 70W? I was more worried about EMF or some other crap caused by motors.

    Alternative is to drill a wall and connecting cable to a wall socket in bedroom… it sucks if thats the only way
