HI,

I am in the process of a timber frame self build and am going through wiring requirements with the electrician. I would like to support home automation in the future. Can anyone provide me with pointers as to the wiring I should put in place or would wireless technologies facilitate networking, audio video streaming from a central location etc?

Wireless would suffice but you may as well run some cat 5e.
Use CT100 for TV satellite cable.
See http://www.letsautomate.co.uk for advice.
Search for posts bt patrido on this site for good tips.
Put 3 coax cable runs from your main TV point to the attic.
