Power Cables and Communication Cable Distance Code Reference
Power Cables and Communication Cable Distance Code Reference
(OP)
Hey everyone,
This is my first post on this forum so hello to all! I have read a ton about the separation of power cables and communication with various "rule of thumbs" on the distance between for optimal reliability. Can anyone point me to the code reference for this rule of thumb? Is it NEC, IEEE or...
Thanks in advance,
Chris

For communication cables you have to trade off speed for distance. Check the communication standard (usually Google is a good start) and it will give you a starting point for speed vs distance limitations.
