    Cable Routing - Is it advisable to run the power cable behind the wall?

    I'm mounting my TV to the wall (first time) and I'd like to run the power cable through the same access holes as the HDMI cables so I can plug it into my UPS/Surge suppressor. Is there any safety/quality/legal reason not to do this?
