FLAT TV Panel hidding cords


I have a SAMSUNG LED mounted VERY close to the wall all wires run thru wall. ALL codes say run electical wire outside(leaving one cable hanging down or move electrical box up behind TV. I am not a electrican but do not see what 3'of tv cord would really cause wires to get hot, Opinions?

The easiest solution is to make an extension cord out of 12-2 with ground romex for an interior wall as they are hollow and it is easy to run the romex to a lower outlet.

The same applies to a fire place if it is not a masonry fire place.

Use two sheetrock, blue electrical boxes, run the romex to them and then add the plug at one end and a grounded female to the other end and you can buy coevers with a hole in the center to add the finished touch.

Never ever run an electrical cord thru a wall, always use romex.

This will take about an hour to complete. A simple solution that even a novice can complete.

I hope this helps.
LED Samsung. TV Mount is not motorized. Going to have plug moved up. Was quoted $100
I had an electrician install a clock outlet behind my flat panel. This outlet is recessed because it is intended to provide power to an electric clock that hangs flush against your wall.
