This week I've been 'playing' with a couple of HomePlug Ethernet adaptors at a local church. They worked great between some locations but not others - eventually I discovered (from the architects drawings) that different rooms are on different phases - are there any rules about the proximity of sockets on different phases? The reason I ask is that the two rooms that I want to network are on different phases but it would be quite easy to put a spur in (plasterboard walls) to one of the rooms on the same phase as the other room. The walls are far too thick (24") for wireless and an ethernet cable is not an option as it would require a >50m long run through the church and chapel and I won't be allowed to do it! Listed building, etc.
I've looked at the IEE On Site Guide but cannot find any reference to phases.
