We have an at least 10 year old aerial in the attic that gives no freeview signal. We would like to remove it as it takes up too much room for no signal. I can only find one wire coming from it and going to a splitter (presumably the 2 wires then going to the 2 aerial points in the house). The aerial looks like it unscrews to take it apart. Will it be connected to the mains? If so, have you any ideas how it may be connected and how it can be safely taken apart? Also, if it removed, will the 2 cables going to the aerial points be 'live' wires? This may sound silly, but it is my mum that goes into the attic not me and I want her to be safe.
