Hi there,

I have added another TV socket to a room so that there are now 2
sockets in one room. Rather than install a new cable from the loft to
the new socket can I dasiy chain the cable from the original socket to
the new one. Only one socket will be in use at any one time.

No but you could loop at the first plate to a TV / FM plate instead so: -

TV at first plate - fly lead goes from TV out socket to TV.
TV at second plate - fly lead goes from TV out socket to FM (TV in really)
socket connected to other room.

If so what is the best way to wire it. I have MK faceplates and they
do allow two wires to connect to it, but only has one clamp per
faceplate. Can I use chocolate boxes to join the cables? I'd like to
avoid using a splitter as I have the SLX Remote Control extender and
the splitters seem to stop it from working .

Any suggestions would be welcome,

Thanks,

Toby.
