A wall has been framed out to mount a touch screen computer monitor. Once the monitor is installed it will be used as a home automation hub.
What is the proper way to supply power to this monitor? The monitor needs to be plugged in somehow to 120v electrical outlet, while also meeting NEC code.
This monitor also has a small transformerpower supply (shown below). WhereWhere should the transformerpower supply be housed? There is a cavity behind the monitor, within the wall framing, for it to sit, but that doesn't seem safe, especially when there's a label on the transformerpower supply, "Caution, my get hot".
The current plan is as follows:
Run the line cord through an electrical conduit. I would first lengthen the monitor's factory line cord by cutting off line cord's wall plug and the ac transformerpower supply plug, and then splice a SO cord to the wall plug and transformerpower supply ac plug, lengthening the line cord. At this point the line cord is around 20 feet, which would then be fished through the gray electrical conduit in the picture. At the end of the conduit is a junction box where the line cord comes out of the wall and plug into a wall outlet, which is a couple of feet away from the junction box.
If I went this route, that would mean splicing the factory monitor line cord, in order to lengthen it. And if that was done, does doing so break code if the splice is inside the gray electrical conduit?
