Do it proper if you want to do it.

Hi.

Firstly off, install two runs, one for yr digital equipment, e.g. CD and/or DVD players, switch-mode digital amps, & power supplies, etc. The other run is exclusively for your anologue stuff, e.g. all your analogue amps, LP turntable, tuner, tapedecks, etc etc.

Don't use common powerline for both digital and analogue gears. I have measured RFI/EMI noises emiitted from a CD or DVD player into the powerline whenever it is switched on.

Secondly, install a dedicated INSULATED ground wire (of minimum same size of the powerline conductor) for each run, hooked up directly to the panel central common ground.

Try not to splice the powerline & ground conductors. There is NO need of doing so.
